The Case and everything in it.
I'm building it for another friend and I can't talk to him at the moment because I'm supposed to be in bed lights out at academy is 10:30 in WA. I'm not positive he needs everything there so throw your suggestions out there.
I'll ask him tomorrow what he needs and post an update.

Aside from that, how big of a hard drive does he want?
How about an 80 GB for $24? Open box, but it's newegg, so if you have problems they'll return it for sure.

He doesnt really care on the case but he doesnt want yellow or orange on it.
It would be nice to get a case that has a fan at the top that pushes air out the top of the case like the antec 900 but cheaper.

upgrade the hard drive to 160GB for $4 more 160GB HDD+$4 OR a 320GB hard drive for $12 more since I saved ya $15 on the case 320GB HDD+$12
the PSU kinda makes me cringe a little, to stay near budget I'd go PC Power & Cooling 500w

The parts arent ordered yet things can be changed still.
Open Box: BIOSTAR TFORCE TA780G http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16813138105R
The Biostar board has a good reputation, and the AMD 780G chipset is better than the GeForce 8100 you had selected in the previous case. It'd be perfect for your buddy.
