And instead of buying a video card I bought Orange Box for $30. I thought it was a good idea at the time.

Isn't there a computer part supply store near you somewhere? Or a friend who has an old computer lying around you can steal a fan from?

That does look like a nice machine, though, have fun. You should try getting OS X running on it.
Oh you (where's that waggle finger emote?)

They're closed and thats what I plan on trying.

I was very happy when I found out I can run OS X on it. I had to ask my friend "Can I run OS X on it?" he said yes, then I asked "Run? Really? Not just emulate?" and he said yes. I cried a little.

No, his processor is actually perfect for running it. There will be a couple conflicts but it should work fine with the hardware he's got.
an operating system doesn't rely solely on the processor
