Well, I was pushing the for the D90 when Ben was in the market for a camera, but that doesn't mean it's for everyone... as far as I'm concerned Nikon and Canon are like Intel and AMD... just like people on a budget should go with AMD I'd say someone on a budget should go with Canon... on the low end you get more for your money. The D40/D40x/D60 is bottom line... kinda like the Canon XT, however the Canon XSi is nearly as good as the D90, which Ben has. So I'd recommend the Canon XSi for you, but of course it's a little over the budget, so you could always go with the Canon XS.
