Go to Fry's (or it's equivalent in your area (*)) and buy a chassis fan (or a power supply or RAM or a mainboard or a disk drive or a cabinet, etc.) and get an OEM version of Windows for considerably less. I'm sad to say I need to run Windows, but I now have two OEM licenses, and I suspect that will suffice for the foreseeable future. God, I hope it does...
