I don't know what your friend's budget is but I built the box I'm on now on Black Friday for $369. Something like this:

Although not exactly that. As I had to cancel that and reorder because it wasn't the correct RAM. Good thing too whoops I forgot to get a case!
It didn't come with Windows though and I sort of liked that and kept it that way too. Maybe not the fastest machine in the world but I was going budget. I wonder how quickly your friends would run Windows if they actually had to buy the stuff. It'd have been another 25% of the total cost of my PC. Then buying all that software too!
