1132500 2010-09-02 08:47:00 I would go something along the lines of...
Corsair VX450 PSU
MSI 760GM-E51 motherboard
Athlon II X4 CPU
2X 2gb DDR3 RAM (2 more slots available on the motherboard if you need to upgrade)
Re-use a case
500gb Seagate 7200.12
Random new DVD burner
And if you want to play games, then a Radeon 5750 card or similar

I just priced that out, but it didn't let me edit my post :(
Comes to $693 delivered
With 5750 card, comes to $922 delivered

I think RAM's a bit pricey at the moment (a year ago I could have got 2x2gb DDR2-800 for $90).
Perhaps get a bit less RAM now, and upgrade later? (The motherboard has 4 ram slots.)
