I'd pay for a copy of Macsyma. Not the open source Maxima version, which is based on its development stage in 1982. The latter is all right, but Macsyma was extremely good.
I can still buy a copy ... for WinXP...

For a while you couldn't even get that. Macsyma was one of those things where proprietary software can end tragically.
Otherwise, I'd pay for a J compiler that could make fast tree structures, but that never existed, and the market is probably 1.
