Also, are there any LUGS he can go to so he doesn't feel like he's bothering you, or taking up your time with foolish questions. Instead he can chat it up with people and pick up some tips on what/how to do things.

I know I am necromancing a bit here but once again I get called in to rescue someones computer, but this time I will face the nightmare that is Vista.
Next week I will dine in hell again, and this time the devil is serving raisin salad... I HATE raisins!

Yeh, for this user I might bring along my copy of Ubuntu Ultimate edition as I dont think he is as willing to do the manual installation of codecs as my previous linux convert.
