newfag here.
I'm sure you want another gear thread so I'm here to ask advice.
I have $800 for a camera and lenses.
Do I buy a used rebel xt from a friend for $300 with kit lens? Then probably buy a 70-200 f/4l.

Or do I buy a used 30d for $600 and no lens?

That's actually a good deal for the XT, btw.

Get the XT and spend the rest on a good lens like a canon 17-55 f2.8 IS USM or a 17-40L.

Listen to this man. He has an XTi.

(I'm guessing he's saying to get the 30D because it has twin control dials and a much better viewfinder. On the Rebel, there's one control for both the shutter speed and aperture and the viewfinder isn't good at all.)

You'll be better than you were before. Better, stronger, faster.
