As my time is not infinite :) I decided to install pclinuxos with kde DE and bfs-PAE kernel. Yes, I will be spending some time, maybe 8 or 16 hours bringing this lady up to speed on basic things. I will certainly automate the updates, so she will not have to interact with the process at all.
I don't know how PCLinuxOS handles updates, but generally speaking you either need to supply the root password (or, if you're in the wheel group your password) to authorize installing the updates. Is this going to be an issue, or is it something she's willing to put up with?
In any event, please keep us informed. I doubt that I'm the only one here other than you who gets asked about installing/using Linux by people who want to get away from Windows but want something that Just Works. Up until now, I've been pointing them at Ubuntu, but if PCLinuxOS is even easier, that gives me another option.
