you could overclock it, underclock it, give it a new paint job, etc...

you could get wild and crazy and try to back light it.

edit: it all depends on what you consider the best

backlighting is very common and relatively easy. google nonfinite, he sells kits, also check out 8bitcollective.org forums.

pretty much all the mods have been listed. just pick something and do it.

1 - paint it
2 - change buttons
3 - stereo sound
4 - back light it
5 - overclock it
6 - underclock it

or here's a wild and crazy idea. do all of the above.
