Pros
Pro Beginner friendly
Linux Lite renames software it comes bundled with to be more user-friendly, it gives suggestions on what additional software the user might be interested, support on how to keep the system up to date, etc. It should especially be familiar to Windows users, since the desktop layout and the basic way you interact with it is similar.
Know any positive aspects of this option?

Works flawlessly on low powered older equipment. I installed it on a Dell Inspiron 6000 that came with Windows XP. It runs great (still slow browsing) for basic tasks, it is secure and worth keeping around, this distro is easy to use for beginners and will not disappoint.
