That guy would be me. 

I think that xfce4 with automounting enabled will cover most of us 
desktop/laptop users as a (suggested) default. xfce4 works with 2d or even VESA 
video and so can work on older machines. 

xfce4 can be made to look like Windows XP (panel at the bottom, notifications 
on the right and applications on a menu on the left) which almost all of my 
family, friends, neighbours and students are familiar with. That reduces the 
'unfamiliarity' of e.g. a laptop handed round a meeting or an old desktop in a 
cafe for Web surfing.
