OK, I Have an opportunity to purchase one of two types of Apple computers, so here are my options: 1. This computer is a G5 desktop,with the Dual core 2.3 GHz,1GMRam,250 GB hard drive,it is aprrox 3 yrs old, has OS mac 10.4, safari internet,I can get it for $250. 2.This computer is a Macbook pro laptop, 2.33 GHz core 2 duo processor 2GB ram,120GB hard drive, 15inch screen.This one I can buy for $350 Now my question is, which one of these items will bring me the HIGHEST re-sale value,or what is the smartest purchase to get the MAX amount out of them? Please advise What would be a realistic price I can get for this Laptop, the the Macbook pro? I can buy it for $350..

1. Macbook Pro holds better resale value... but iMac also holds good too, but laptops are very hot right now and the trend shows more interest in laptops vs desktops. Macbook Pro may be remodeled soon though while the new Macbook has just been remodeled so it would be a good bet as the newer models will retain value longer.
