I would say that a business transaction has taken place but I would not call this person a customer, more of an associate.
This is the reason that I do not build systems for anyone other than myself and my parents. Simply because they and myself are the only ones that I can acurately build a system for knowing what it will be used for.
Reminds me of my old computer back in '96 that my uncle had built for us. It had a whopping 4G HD and he told my parents that I would never be able to fill it up. Which was pretty accurate considering at that time fileswapping was not the rage and games did not have an install size of over 1.5G, which is not uncommon these days. (heh at that time Phantasmagoria was on an unheard of 7 CDs and only required an install size of 10M). Two years later when I switched from midis to mp3s the HD filled fairly quickly and my mom was completely dumbfounded by this because "i could never fill it up".
Basically if you are not prepared to upgrade to suit your needs then either work with what you have or find alternate means (ie. cameras, paper, pencil and other pre-computer items).
