Okay, here are my thoughts and suggestions.
I've never heard of that case or the PSU that comes with it. I would recommend going with a more respected PSU manufacturer such as Antec or Enermax. Here's a decent case and PSU combo:

Your mobo/CPU should be fine for your stated purpose.
Harddrive is fine, but I would spend the few extra dollars for one with a 16MB cache, such as this:

Your RAM is your one glaring issue. 256MB isn't enough to run XP smoothly, let alone Vista. 512 is the minimum I would recommend for XP and 1GB will be necessary for the full version of Vista.
DVD drive and monitor are fine.
I've never really had a need for a wireless keyboard/mouse at home, but I'm sure some people have. You could save yourself some cash for other components by going with something like this:
