SHIV will probably be released in 2007. Players with 2001 computers who don't want to upgrade shouldn't try to get Devs to crap up games for them. I understand your frustration (I've had to upgrade many a time), but why should those of us with huge machines (AMD 64X2 4200 Dual Core, 2 Gig Ram, 2X7900GTs in SLI Mode here) have to continue to play graphically unapealing or downright ugly games because you refuse to upgrade? Or what about newbies coming from the "shoot-em up" genre? They'll want the advanced graphics too.
You bet they will try to make it prettier. In the world of gaming, prettier is always a selling point. Not necesarily in the world of realism, but pretty sells a lot better.

As for point 9) I would suggest having them randomized a bit, so that you could risk running into them weeks ahead or weeks later than their actual historical occurance, for more gameyness and challenge.
