You didn't say why? Is there a particular program he craves a newer
version of?

I went the Ubuntu route a couple of years ago. It's fun until you do a
routine update and everything breaks. If he's not an expert and it's
his workstation (that is, where he works) I would stick with stable,
unless there is a compelling need for a newer version of something he
needs to get his work done.

In Debian, stable means something, as they say.
