Going to let hell freeze over and agree with MYK here. For a novice user, Dell is usually a good choice for 1) price 2) fewer hassles. Although, I will say that buying from them is easy, dealing with their customer service for returns is not.
Here's a great example of why I don't bother building computers for friends as a favor anymore.

The deal's expired but it's damn difficult to build your own with a Licenced version of Vista (non OEM I might add) for that price. Personally I'd go with a Core 2 Duo (and probably a better vid card) but depending on what you're using it for you might never notice.
That and I hate playing help desk for my friends when I build them stuff....
