 AM> - New power brick

I did this for my C-64 and have never regretted it.

 AM> - Replacing the capacitors

I would suggest not replacing them for the sake of replacing them.

If they are leaking or show any other signs of going bad, then certainly,
replace them.  Otherwise, leave them alone.

You will get much better value of putting heat sinks on the chips.

 AM> Also, if there is any software you recommend, I definitely want to hear
 AM> about it too :)

The Internet Archive has loads.  It's truely amazing how much software (some of
it new!) is still available for the C-64.


... Maybe they'll send you a free upgrade...NOT!
