Not much, a few dollars. I've seen them offered for free. In Europe
they tend to do a bout 20 euro's.
But their value cannot really be expressed in financial terms.

Times didn't change that much. As long as you use old software, you'd
be surprised to see that you can be just as productive on a mac plus
as you'd be on a modern day iMac. The main difference is the plus and
the software from that time being less bloated.

Check gamba's for older system software, including 7.1.
