Getting an MBA during your "computer-related" career is quite feasible, which will be that degree in business for you. Many times, your employer may even pay for your education.
I would say go for the Key Club and see what that can do for you. Remember that no matter what extracurricular activity you choose to partake in, be active and work to make a difference in the club; don't simply join a club so that you can put it on your application. See what you can also do for the club. Don't do all the things you can, but do all the things you want. It's really important to show prospective universities that you are proactive about pursuing your interests and goals. In short, don't just join clubs that "look good," but for example, join clubs that show colleges that you are actively involved in your interest in computers.
Try looking for volunteer service opportunities. Soup kitchens and homeless shelters are good, but see if you can break out of that mold.
By the way, what year of high school are you in? That way, we can help you prioritize things more easily.
