Get an iPad.

We have several apps we use with our 9-month daughter. It's her favorite toy by far--the minute she sees it, she's off like a rocket tugging at the feet of whoever is using it. It has flashcard apps, a cartoon dinosaur that talks to her, books that read themselves to her while highlighting the words, cool fractal displays that respond to her touching the screen, etc. It's well-built and has withstood many baby-related mishaps.

If you can get him to love computers, everything else you're worried about should fall into place.
