I would Like to change the processor to a AMD Athlon(TM) II 240 dual-core processor [2.8GHz, 2MB L2, up to 4000MT/s bus]
The Graphics card to a 512MB ATI Radeon HD 4350 [DVI, HDMI, VGA adapter]
and the Networking card to a Wireless-G LAN card
otherwise I would like to keep everything else the same.So would this be a good computer to play the sims 3 on or not.

I am trying to decide which major I would enjoy more in college (year from now). I am very interested in Network and electronic devices with wireless and wired connections. Which major would be better for me, computer or electrical engineering? I hear they are very closely related but I want to find out which degree actually works more with networks than strict computing. I am pretty strong at math and have been fumbling with computers/electronics since I was about 10 years old.

In Recent years, laptops and personal digital assistants have made computing away from the desk fairly common. In the future, such mobile computing will become ubiquitous. A specification for a Handheld Device Markup Language (HDML) for mobile computers with screens similar to those in cellular telephones has been proposed by the W3 consortium. The W3 consortium is the organization the develops new versions of the Hypertext Markup W3 Consortium is the organization that develops new versions of the Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) used to create documents for the World Wide Web. HDML will make cellular phones smarter, allowing people to use wireless communications to read the days, check stock quotes, browse through catalogs, and place orders for goods and services.
