Grab the April edition of PC User, there's a section on sub-$1500 PCs. A bit above the price you were after, but they're all pre-built and from reputable places. I think the postage is free Australia-wide, but don't quote me on it.
And at $1500 it will probably last a little while as well. At the very least it gives you some idea of what a pre-built system should include for that price. If you look around I think they had a sub-$1000 desktop PC competition recently too.
