Default Here's what I built...

Antec Sonata Case w/ 380W PS - $99
AMD 2600+ (333 FSB) - $94 (Frys special included ECS mobo)
ECS N2U400A Mother board - $0
CoolerMaster heat sink + fan - $10
Pioneer DVR-107 8X DVD burner - $150
Gigabyte Radeon 9200 video card w/ 128 MB - $69
2x512 MB sticks (1 GB) of PC2700 memory (Crucial) - 2x$82=$164

Used an old 20 GB hard disk I already had laying around - will probably
upgrade it soon...

Total cost: $586 + $15 to ship the case (free shipping or store purchase on
everything else)...

I was looking to spend around $600, so I think I did pretty good! If I
wasn't such a memory hog, it would have been closer to $500. The case is a
joy to work with, but not as quiet as I had hoped. It's not loud by any
means, but my Dell at work is MUCH quieter.
