Free.
Runs well on old hardware.
Many distros now very easy to use.
Plenty of free software.
Hardly any viruses/malware.
So my mother-in-law can more safely browse where I don't need to be constantly cleaning up her machine like I would need to on Windows. Where she dosen't need to worry that some trojan is on the box with a keylogger stealing here online banking info, etc. Yet its easy for her to use. And it was cheap to build the PC for her because Linux runs well on not so powerful hardware. Its not good for gaming, but great for a general internet user these days if you use the right distro.
