You can still purchase a brand-new C64 for about 80 pounds sterling here,
and it comes with tape deck, joysticks and some games and word-processing
software.

I think the only C64 emulator for the PC will emulate the BASIC and is not
able to actually act as a C64.  Still - have a hunt around in 
wuarchive.wustl.edu in the /systems directory area - there are some emulators
and interesting bits and pieces there.
