What do you do with it?
£500 is a lot for a barebones PC if you don't do much with it.
Windows 7 or Windows 10, Skip 8 (there is no 9).

No reason to spend more than £200 then http://www.pcworld.co.uk/gbuk/compu...p-pcs/lenovo-h30-desktop-pc-10108797-pdt.html
Maybe spend another £20-40 and get an i-3 processor instead if you want to splash out.
Anything more will be completely wasted power for your use.

W7. Don't go with 8.
The reason why Microsoft are bringing out Windows 10 (no 9 for some reason), and offering a free upgrade to all W7 and W8 users, is that few people wanted W8 (basically because it's crap) and few people decided to upgrade from W7 (because W8 is crap).
I hope they've learnt from their mistakes. Vista was another failure.

Don't buy Dell either!
I bought one a few weeks ago and it lasted 4 days before playing up. I was very disappointed with the quality too as it weighed as light as a feather!
The call centre helpline was crap too and I ended up sending it back for a refund.

Forgot to say that its worth giving John Lewis a look in as they give you 2 years warranty.
Might wait for Windows 10 to come out now which should be out by July I am told.

I've had four desktops from pcspecialst.com in the last couple of years. You can get a decent spec for five hundred quid and they'll put whatever OS you want on it. Personally I like win7. Win 8 is ok on the couple of laptops and tablets I've got but it's crap on a desktop.
