Open Source
More privacy
More customisability
Better performance
More choice
Better software security
Features that Windows doesn't have or is only now implementing (floating bars, file manager tabs etc.)
Better command line experience
Better scriptability (if that's a word)
Those are the ones I can think of off the top of my head.
