Need to find him some books he'll enjoy reading. Two of my sisters knew how to read from a technical perspective but weren't at all interested in doing so, we actually used comic books to get them interested and then novels and now they read lots of nonfiction as well and at a college level.

Also, as a boy who grew up with computers myself, I know that the one thing I REALLY wanted to do and never got enough of was to play on the computer all the time. My parents only let me use the computer when all my homework and chores were done, and then only for a limited amount of time. If you can somehow manage to do the same thing with your son, his attention span will improve.
