During the majority of my time working with computers, Windows was the operating system of choice. Reason being, it's all I've known. In 2002, I took a college course titled "Linux Administration" which entitled me to a few cd-roms of Redhat 7.x. While this course was nothing more than a few extra credits for me, I fell in love with Linux and went through the entire textbook a week into the class. It was a nice feeling to use something "different" than what I was used to.

Why do you care whether there are hundreds of apps who do the same thing? You just need to install one.
I don't know what this is like in SuSE, but i heard they are quite bloated, and for the very same reason i don't use KDE.
But in ie. Gentoo, enter "emerge gnome" and you get exactly what you described you want. One file manager, one email client, one media player, one text editor, one pdf viewer, one window manager, and so on. and they all fit and work together. The only exception is that you get one and a half web browsers, because epiphany is based on mozilla.
