Define valuable? Most of that software will sell for $10-20 on ebay. Books are harder to make money on.

Worth more than say $40 bucks...

The books are somewhat uninteresting, although there are a fair number of Microsoft documentation books on the shelf.

Those two MS-DOS HP binders look awesome. There's documentation and floppies inside?

DOS 3.3 is probably worth something. Are there DOS 6 discs in that box? That's definitely worth keeping hold of.

What's in the Borland box? Presumably a programming language.
