That's similar to what I just built for Amy a couple of days ago:

e-Cube barebones case, Celeron 2.4Ghz CPU, 256M PC2700 DDR RAM, a 40G HD
I had lying around, $20 SBLive! sound card (she didn't like the onboard
sound), and a $39 (!) 52x CD-R/16X DVD-ROM.  All together, was around $400.

Reason I was looking at the mini-ITX stuff was size, noise, power usage,
and the ability to use my existing RAM and HD.
