First start by figuring out how MANY beers you want on tap at one time. Are you going the keezer, fridge route, picnic or regular taps? I purchased all my kegging supplies from
Kegconnection, good selection, good prices, good customer service (emailed a question on a clamp size and received a reply in about 10 minutes).
My set up is 6 kegs in a 8cf freezer controlled with a STC-1000 with 5ft line and picnic taps. I have a 8 inch collar and both the lid and collar are hinged. This works best for me.

This is a good place to start for freezer lay outs.
Give us some information on what your looking for and we can help spend your money and smile every time you pour a beer.

What he said, plus, what size kegs, 5 gals or 3? If you go 5 gal. shop around, you'll find package deals. I got 2 reconditioned 5ers, new 5# co2, 2 picnic taps, dual regulator, and gas line with splitter for $195. Check craigslist, if you trust it for kegs. I personally would buy used from a dealer, unless you know the people.
Think ahead as well. You may THINK you only want 1 or 2 kegs, but trust me, that will change.
And I am envious of Ink's set up...
