Will this support/run SHIV? And buy DVD or direct download?

Two basic questions: the first more fact, the second opinion.

#1) This is my current rig specification. Will this reasonably run SHIV and, if not, what --if anything-- do I need to do to upgrade/add to/etc. in order to run the game?

#2) What are the pros/cons between buying the game as a box/DVD versus buying it as a direct-downloaded game? Any opinions or recommendations? (Amongst being whether to buy it at all right now --wry grin--)

Danke!
