The main advantages of using Linux come more from being able to go hard into customization, so it really is an excellent kernal for computer enthusiasts. That being said, there are some really great uses for an every day user. The main major perk is that it's free, you can't beat that. It generally will never get computer viruses, so you don't really have to worry about that. Other than that though... I generally think of it as more of a hobbiest thing. It can be fun though, and you will likely learn a lot more about how PC's work.
