A friend built a very similar setup to this recently, using different RAM and HDD. It's a very nippy wee system and is practically inaudible even at load.I've specced a Venice 3000+ here because the difference between his 3000 and my 3200+ is barely noticeable until you start benchmarking games.

£69.95 FS-028-AS Asus Vintage AH1 Barebones System - AMD Socket 939 (FS-028-AS)
£69.95 CP-117-AM AMD Athlon 64 3000+ Venice 90nm (Socket 939) - Retail (ADA3000BPBOX) (CP-117-AM)
£48.95 MY-005-GL GeIL 1GB (2x512MB) PC3200 Value Dual Channel Kit CAS2.5 (GE1GB3200BHDC) (MY-005-GL)
£51.95 HD-018-SA Samsung SpinPoint P SP2504C 250GB SATA-II 8MB Cache - OEM (HD-018-SA)

Subtotal £240.80
VAT £42.14
Total £282.94

Edit: Obviously underbudget to give some leeway on the CPU speed. If your Dad's only going to be using it for 'net stuff and won't be gaming nor video encoding there's no real point in going faster than 3200+ :)
