Yes, you were always going to get that sort of reply from Australians. I have an idea: roam the streets of Meadowbank, Sydney once a week and pick up any computers you see, dumped on the side of the road, and pinch their memory chips (if any). You could also try Marrickville, inner West Sydney. Another idea: turn up to an auction place and get a 486 for $10 and raid them for memory. (if you don't mind burning $10 bills ...)
