I've installed Windows 7 and connect via wireless N USB adapter to a media server. I added 1 GB of SODIMM RAM (max is 2 - 2GB SODIMMs) . I adjusted to BIOS to give the video 512M of memory rather than the default 256M. I connect to my TV via HDMI port and use the TV speakers. (I could have added powered speakers for better sound) The movies play flawlessly over the wireless. I will add a wireless MCE controller later and don't anticipate any problems with that. A further potential performance boost could be the addition of a 4GB USB memory stick to enable Windows ReadyBoost. I wanted a quiet, small media player for my bedroom. It is very price competitive with other media player devices. If you use the device as an MCE media player to watch movies in bed and not a game machine, this is an awesome fit for this application.

It's constantly referred to as a netbook and a laptop, when it is neither. And I'd hardly call the 2 cables involved in hooking up a keyboard and mouse "a mess", we've been plugging in mice and keyboards since the first computers.

I would be more concerned with the graphics cards in those though, you might not be able to run sims 3 anyway because the graphics card is not good enough. You might be able to set the graphics down low enough though. Yes.
