Linux Mint has been smooth so far, including plug-and-play for every device I use. Its installation USB boots on its own and allows you to play around with the operating system, and also has a dual-boot option that will preserve a Windows installation, though I haven't tried that. The main difficulty I remember was Windows making it rather hard to verify and write a USB boot drive!
There are various hassles, including the occasional but unavoidable need for command line work, but it's less hassle overall than I encounter from Windows on my office computer.
