that depends on how you run JMeter. If you're running it in GUI mode,
I would recommend

512mb of ram
1ghz
100mb ethernet

If you're running in console mode, I would go with

384-512mb of ram
1ghz
100mb ethernet

If you plan to test insane load with high concurrency, I would
recommend going up to 768Mb of ram and gigabit ethernet. Aside from
that, a couple cheap machines should be better at producing heavy
concurrent load than one expensive machine.
