Until I read the movie rendering bit I was going to say, get a P1 233mhz with 64meg of RAM!!!

Single P4 running at a couple of ghz with a gig of ram would be fine for that sort of use.

Nice...very nice :-)

Ok, I'm seriously thinking of building a new up to date PC.  It has to
be a 64 bit CPU (of course) and though quad core sound nice I think
dual core will be fine for me.  Forget Intel it has to be AMD for me.
I've looked and am now totally bewildered.  I don't play games but I
do a lot of surfing.  I rarely play music myself but my kids do when
they are on the PC but built in sound is fine.  I do occasionally
watch the odd movie on the PC (I much prefer it in comfort on the 42"
plasma).  I have done some movie rendering though so I'll be looking
at a decent amount of RAM (well, while it's this cheap).

So, suggestions anybody?  Anything to avoid like the plague?

I was going to say that, you don't need a dual core cpu to browse the web :)
