Mercurial / hg is a nice alternative to git which has pretty good Windows support - there is a TortoiseHg explorer client and it has support in Eclipse etc.
I'm certainly interested to know which VCS would best suit me, but that's as an aside. We have a number of apps already in svn and a handful of users using them via TortoiseSVN. They're all pretty basic configs: it's really just being used as a backup of the code, and each place it's used is only really interested in the "latest" version unless it has to rollback because there's a problem, but each set of code is only used in one place so maintaining multiple versions isn't an issue.
I'm trying to make better use of svn in places it can actually bring some value, and whilst ditching it in favour of git/hg/other isn't out of the question I'm going to need a good reason to convince people to learn something new.
