So, in the case of my aunt, there were a few teething troubles. That said, a lot of it was just requests to add web page shortcuts to her desktop.
The really big thing is that she's stopped complaining about how slow her laptop is, and openly says she finds it easier to use.
Most of the troubleshooting is going to be around office software and games. It's also going to be about replacing windows tools (I am really going to miss my ".bat cave"), and learning new troubleshooting skills (wine is a bit rough to troubleshoot unless you're willing to get your mining gear out and dig deep into logs).
