What about these : 

- Change his / her password
- Manage Browser Bookmarks / Favourites / Hotlist (whatever) 
	* Add Bookmarks
	* Return to Bookmarked sites
	* Change default Homepage in Browser
- Download a picture and print it
- Download and install a software package, say Acrobat Reader 
(Hey, for a Windows user this is so simple, why not test in KDE, the user 
profile say the target are people comfy in Windows, this is everyday food. 
Arguably it is not very reliant on KDE, but I doubt Win/Mac users will think 
of Linux with one desktop or another as "Linux running KDE" or "Linux running 
GNOME" or even "GNU/Linux running Windowmaker" ... )
