Advice need - renderfarm setup

Hi guys, Some advice would be appreciated, on a new idea/venture.
I'd like to set up a small farm to render animations and tests etc.
I'm thinking 3-5 pc's, rather than one beastly machine. Or a beast to work on and others to render with.

I'm thinking 3-5 *

P4 3.4 ghz
100gb storage
Motherboard with onboard graphics
2 gb ram

What do you guys think?
budget is about that. around 3-5 k depending.

thanks
