My mom is a Cap and well...I think I've said enough on here about how much I love my mom.
That's probably just my 4th house Moon talking. 
One of my best female friends is a Capricorn Sun, too (actually, she had a ridiculous 6 or 7 planet Capricorn stellium). I love how independent and strong she is...sometimes I feel like I have to "carry" my friends emotionally, but that's what I love about Caps. They pretty much take care of themselves but they don't hesitate to help their friends out, either. She's also extremely trustworthy and dependable...if she says she's going to do something, I know she's going to do it. She won't back out at the last minute or just decide to not show up. She never borrows money but in the rare occasion that she has to, she always makes up for it by paying next time. They don't try to take advantage, basically, which is something that I think most Virgos have a negative experience with.
I like Cap Sun guys, too. They don't come on too strong, which I guess could bother a lot of women but it doesn't seem to bother me.
I just see them as a cooler, calmer version of myself.
Cons...they can be a little too aloof. I'm guilty of this, too, but with a lot of 4th house energy, sometimes I just want to connect. I want to figure out how to get on their level emotionally, which can be really, really difficult. I know they have emotions, and they know they have emotions, too...but getting them to open up is a whole other story.
I've also noticed that just like Virgos, sometimes they pull the disappearing act, too. Not in a way that endangers their reputation of being really, really dependable...it's just that they get busy and next thing you know, it's been three months since you last saw them. Nine times out of ten, it's because they're workaholics who haven't talked to anybody else, either. It doesn't bother me that much, because usually as soon as they've noticed how long they've been absent from your friendship/relationship/whatever they feel bad about it and try to "make up" for it. 
I think that's a problem with pretty much any earth sign/placement, though...we're all workaholics with aloof/cool tendencies. It's not enough to make me hate them. If there's anybody that I would want to have by my side during a rough day/week/month/year(s), it's a Cappy. I've got nothing but respect for them...I also have a stellium in Capricorn, which may explain why.
