As he's noted he's been using Red Hat (and I assume Linux) for about a 
year, I would go to too drastic a change.  SuSE or Mandrake would be a 
good change that would give him a feel of other distributions without 
making a huge change in the install process.  Debian and Slack should be 
somewhere on down the road for such a user.
