Titter ye not. There are computers available to fit even the most meagre budgets. As of 4pm (NZST), $800 Zimbabwean Dollars will net you this rig..
Don't delay though. Taking into account Zimbabwean hyper-inflation, and weak performance against every other major currency, if you wait until tomorrow morning, you'll have to forego the mouse & monitor, and rely solely on keyboard shortcuts for navigation :(

Double vote for the i5-25/35k.
Also for 10 bucks more on newegg you can get a 1.5TB seagate drive for storage (5200RPM)
Id also dump a bit more into a good PSU like a Corsair builder. Saw one on newegg in the 550/650 area for 70 I think. Not sure if its still on sale though.

I completely agree. Slap a 32X on that and the blast processing will blow you away.

If you aren't comfortable with building your own from pieces, I'd recommend going to newegg.com and looking at their prebuilt ibuypower.com computers for sale. They are usually on sale, and even if not, are already cheaper than what you could get with very similar specs by custom building it on cyberpowerpc.com or ibuypower.com.

00 dollars, small budget. Anyway giving you some pro tips here since your budget is pretty crap.
Dumpster diving, you need to find a decent place for old or unwanted computer parts, I recommend college dumpsters.

800 will give you entry level, don't be an idiot.
Take my advice colleges, assholes throw out some decent high priced items do to some moronic reasons.
Hell I haven't paid for a computer part in ages.

You didn't specified if you want a monitor included in that price. So I made 2 suggestions:
without monitor, $798
