From a technology point of view they're isn't really much reason to move away from Windows. It works, it's familiar and everything is made to run with it. What sets Linux apart is the absence of corporate shitfuckery that makes Windows a no-go for me. With Linux your computer is really yours and you're in control of what data gets sent where and what updates are performed when. It takes a bit but effort overall but it gives you a sense of empowerment that I wouldn't want to miss.
