IS the No CD Included just for Norton or is it all the S/W in which case it isnt really worth a whole lot...

i would say $300-400usd. you cannot charge them for software unless you give them the original CD with a legal key. it has to be authentic software. when people buy a computer they do not want to pay for any software except operating system, generally.

Yea, software is expensive as f\/ck, but it has low resale value.
