Linux Information and Distro
 
My Uncle has never heard of Linux.

I tried to help him understand about all of the different distro's and their capabilities and even told him about my Ubuntu with Ultimate Edition.

Now; he's in his 70's and I thought he would of at least heard of Linux. I was wrong because he is clueless.

I'm going to send him the Linux Journal:
http://www.linuxjournal.com/

What would you recommend for a good link and website for me to send to him?

Maybe send him some Youtube videos where people demo their compiz desktop cubes and other cool Linux tricks? Do you think he would enjoy that kind of thing?
