This stuff???? Do you mean computers and linux? Like windows, linux has a hardware compatibility list. Do you know what he wants to do with Linux? The way I started out was playing with DEC unix at uni way back when win3.0 was out, I hated using windows since the release of win95, and found Linux a happy medium, for programming and gaming. I first got linux in a redhat unleashed it was a pretty comprehensive book. He could also look at linux.org, linux.com and read the documentation. The other thing is that you could install a program called vmware if feel nervous about installing linux on your computer.
