It is easier to check out lists like this if people don't have to click on each link to view the parts.
I finally did, and it looks mostly good, but you can get newer quicker hard drives for little more (e.g. the 7200.11 family), and you may want to select a Retail optical drive in order to get the software with it. You'll need a decoder in order to watch movies on it. That's typically a $30 download if you buy it separately, but should be included in a Retail version for maybe $5-$7 more.

+1 for 7200.11 HDD. As for the retail vs OEM, the Retail usually comes with Nero and extra cables. The OEM doesn't come with any extras. Imo, just get the retail. Also you CAN find open source/free software if you decide to go OEM.

Looks good! All are good quality parts. Good luck with the build. Is this your first build?

One more thing. I highly recommend you get DDR2 800 RAM. The DDR2 1066 RAM are known to have compatibility issues.
