Bringing 130XE back to life

Hey guys, I just found out about this site at the Expo this weekend. I wanted to bother you with some questions. I have a 130 XE with an XF551 that I am trying to bring back to life so that I can go back to have some of the fun I had with it during the 80s. Right now all I have is the units, no power supplies or cables.

So my questions are, if I wanted to make my XE all modern and cool with some of the cool upgrades that I saw are now available, how would you guys do it?

I know for sure I am ordering a Fujinet. But if I wanted to upgrade video to hopefully get some way to plug it to a new HDMI monitor, would a Sophia2 be a good choice? or is something like a VBXE better? I can't tell if the VBXE would give me a different video plug.

Do you guys think the Ultimate 1 MB is a good idea?

Thanks in advance for any feedback you may have. Ed.
