Would xubuntu be an option?
Or use a distro using a 2.2 or 2.4 kernel? Damn Small Linux etc.
xubuntu is not a lot smaller than ubuntu. I'd say you were on the right track with puppy linux. It's very capable on older, low spec machines. If he wants a more demanding distro he's going to need to find a more powerful machine to run it.
