| 1398952 | 2015-04-27 23:45:00 | im not a retailer. im not a business. i am an artist. i never pay for people's parts, they do that themselves. they keep all the paperwork. its their computer. i just design it and sometimes even put it together. this is art, i dunno how it gets conflated as a commercial enterprise. |

Do they pay you? If so you're a business in all but name and the law still applies |

| 1398955 | 2015-04-28 01:04:00 | Unless you paint the case then the case could be considered art, but not the computer inside | gary67 (56) | ||
| 1398956 | 2015-04-28 01:21:00 | Its art if its stuck onto a Ak wharf, or attached to the side of a building. Then the Ak council will pay $100,000+ for it. | 1101 (13337) | ||
| 1398957 | 2015-04-28 16:06:00 | its almost like negative outlooks are being wished upon me. do not want anyhow back on topic of build advice, here is a template for the $800 computer. (One user review) $93.00 1 x Kingston ValueRAM DDR3 PC12800/1600MHz CL11 8GB $157.00 1 x AMD FX-Series FX-6300 3.5GHz Socket AM3+ Box $84.00 1 x Kingston SSDNow V300 SV300S37A 120GB $113.00 1 x ASRock 970 Pro3 R2.0 $65.00 1 x PowerCase PN509 420W (Black) $189.00 1 x Sapphire Radeon R7 260X HDMI DP 2GB ?$? shipping from alphacity $$701.00$$ could do with additional storage, alternatively an i3 and a nvidia gpu can be used. a different case/psu is another thing to think about how is this not an art? |

| 1398959 | 2015-04-29 04:42:00 | anyone can build a computer. it takes an artist to call it art On the contrary, not anyone can build a computer (yes it's easy enough but still beyond some people) and art is subjective. Anyone can call anything art, it's really a rather meaningless term in many cases. Having the technical ability to choose and assemble a good mix of components at a given price point is something you might describe as an art form but in reality it's just the normal work of a competent technician. Custom Building a PC with water cooling and cabling designed to look good, now that can be art. By the way you should have received a package by today or maybe tomorrow with the long weekend, I trust it reaches you unharmed. I don't entirely trust the handling of the post service. |

| 1398961 | 2015-04-29 05:12:00 | It's even special anti-static foam (just the pink stuff not the grey) acquired from the box an exchange VDSL card comes in. Considering the cards cost more than some PC's I figured it ought to work. | dugimodo (138) | ||
