What sort of budget?
750~850
edit:that is including the os and keyboard and mouse and all those other little things you need
Windows 7 rc?
Use it till next year then grab an oem version, from some of the reviews its better than vista and free for a year (ish)?
There's lots of configurations which will do the job... heck, even an dual-core atom/ion build will technically get the job done. What kind of headroom do you need?
Well with that budget i'd concentrate on low noise, small and good performance (not amazing).

Should come in less than £550 :)
I run something fairly similar and it's lovely and quiet (next to silent).
