==Functions in The Sims 2==
Some of the computer functions in ''The Sims 2'' are similar to the phone functions in ''The Sims''. The uses of a computer have been greatly expanded, as they could previously only be used for gaming and finding jobs. There are only two models in the base game, one costing §1000 and the other costing §2800. The only difference between the two is that the more expensive one raises a room's Environment score. ''[[Teen Style Stuff]]'' added a §2000 computer which also raises the Environment score. This computer, the '''Pear ShinyStation XTR''', was also included in ''[[Apartment Life]]'', but was not made visible in the catalog. Players who have ''Apartment Life'' but not ''Teen Style Stuff'' can make it visible in the Buy mode catalog by installing the proper Extra from the latest CEP. The free computer that [[Rod Humble]] delivers in ''[[FreeTime]]'' appears to use the same style.
EA made an Alienware computer available for download from the [[The Exchange#External links|Exchange]] for ''The Sims 2''. This computer costs §3100, and has a slightly higher Fun and Environment rating than other computers. Players should note that this download was never updated for any expansion packs. While it will work with expansions, only the base-game functions will be available. Updated versions are available as custom content.
