Yes.
Can he just install Windows and then zap OSX off of the drive?
Sure .. other people have done it. I haven't. (the process is to use a standalone program to reformat the disk, getting rid of OS/X partitions, and just create whatever partitions you want and then boot the installer.)
For example:

Either sell it or install windows on it. Bootcamp is the easiest way if you never ever intend to run OS/X.
