I want to build a Micro ATX system. The main points are to have a very quite system at a good price. I want 64bit processor, support for 4gb memory, SATA HDD, GB LAN and onboard graphics. I will be using this system just for virtual machines.

Can any one recomend any system builds?
 
What is your budget here? Bear in mind that many mATX motherboards have only 2x Ram sockets so you might have to go for 4gb right away rather than 2gb and then upgrade. Also do you need software or anything other than the basic system box?
 
Well looking for cheap as possible within the specs i require. Maybe max of £350. I am only interested in 4GB memory boards, which I have seen a few. I will be running windows 2003 with Vmware virtual server.
 
I think this is probably suitable then, the motherboard does allow for 4gb, has onboard graphics, gb lan. :)
