highly varies based on region. In the US, the Dell ChromeBox for $130 is probably the best buy ATM; in the UK, it's the HP 260 G1. The advantage of the Chromebox is the inclusion of RAM, SSD, WIFI, and BT for less than the price of other units which don't include some/all of those. Plus, it's by far the fastest booting box due to its use of highly optimized open-source firmware.
