Gamble worth taking?

[Wheatmaster]

ok i want to get an apple laptop for pretty good price. This is what i want to do: sell my compaq presario for $$$ on ebay. use that money to get apple laptop. is it too much to gamble for? i'm afraid i won't have enough $$$ to buy the apple laptop afterwards...

expected selling price of laptop? expected buying price of apple?

I would almost bet that either way, you will still have to put a little bit of money into getting the apple.

You might try trading it in the FS/FT forums. Or selling the presario there, so you know how much it is selling for.
