Looks good to me. I haven't built a barebones system, but you have all the needed parts there (assuming you have a monitor and keyboard already )

Get a 7200 rpm harddrive, and I would go with Western Digital over Maxtor. Better reliability, but if it's only a test system you would be ok. You might also consider a little more RAM.
