Because your PC is not 64-bit machine.

Hang it in the garden to scare of crows
Put it in the microwave and watch the sparks fly
Use it as a drinks coaster
Collect a few more and make a Noddy Holder hat

Any other suggestions as to what he can do with it?

i kinda meant ways to sell it or trade it.

There's no legal way to sell it.

Just purchase or build a x64 compatible machine.

They are absolutely great to cut up cream cakes (Birthday cakes) and such.
Only, nothing hot, like pizza!

No. He has an educational copy. Licensing doesn't allow resale. (and yes, I
know you can find all sorts of them on eBay, but that doesn't make it
legal.)
