Pros
Pro Lightweight
Pantheon is a lightweight desktop environment that's able to run on many different computers. From my experience, it was fast and snappy with my old HP Pavilion Dv3.
Cons
Con Lacking in customization
While this is an easy alternative directed at less advanced users, I believe other DEs targeted at the same audience achieve a greater level of customization while still not intimidating the target audience..
