MacFan by Blowhard Industries

Hey all. I purchased a Mac Plus keyboard, and it happened to come with a mouse and 4mb Mac Plus. :) Completely unexpected was a "MacFan" in the top of the unit. It appears that the whole thing was sitting in an attic box for a l-o-n-g time because it took a lot of strength to slide it off, and the discoloration difference under the fan was huge. Anyway, I could not find anything about it on Google/Bing searches, so I thought i would share here in case anyone has insight on it. It seems to move air at a minimal rate, but I have yet to take it apart and check out the actual fan mechanism. The case is all metal if that isn't evident from the photos. Mouse included for scale.
Thanks!

it appears to be similar to the Kensington System Saver, I wonder what one would plug into the other plug, if one plug is taken up by the macintosh? Maybe an HD20/20SC?
