    If you want something a little more fresh, I’d maybe avoid Arch as your first go and try openSUSE Tumbleweed. It strikes a balance between bleeding edge and stable (they call it “leading edge” I believe). Everything is tested before release and isn’t too stale like Ubuntu/Debian flavors. I personally like KDE for the desktop environment but the installer lets you choose.

    If you want to stick with Ubuntu or something similar, I’d recommend Linux Mint. I used it before switching to openSUSE.

    Most options should be dual boot friendly but I’d recommend installing Windows first to avoid bootloader issues.
