Xenix? Rare?
3)Famous software, like VisiCalc
Way too much according to what I see some packages selling on the net for
($50-$100).
Should these things be expensive?
Depends. How much do you want to pay?
More specifically, and perhaps more to the point, do

a copy of VisiCalc (black binder/manual c1981) and MS Multiplan are
each worth $5?
Not bad. Considering I've seen some fools pay ten times that.
