It depends on what you are looking to do.
Some people are happy getting an AppleTV.
For $30 you can get a Google Chromecast and stream all kinds of HD programming over the internet or locally via Plex.
Or you could get a Raspberry Pi and run one of the distros with XBMC. (A basic understanding of Linux will be very helpful here.)
You could also get an Intel NUC and build a mediacenter PC with that, but once you buy RAM and a hard drive for it, your cost could be close to $400.
You could get a Roku.
There is also the Amazon FireTV.
The last option I can think of is to buy a new Blu ray player. Many of them have a host of mediacenter features built in including Vudu, Youtube, Hulu+, and Netflix. Some even support Amazon Prime.
I have a ChromeCast and a Raspberry Pi running RaspBMC and they both work well for me. The only thing I can't watch with either one is Amazon Prime video.
If you have a TV that supports HDMI, that should suffice as a display. You'll also want an ethernet cable, USB power cable, SD card and USB keyboard. I picked up this model on Amazon. I'm very pleased with it so far.
