Your project can be to find an alternative 16MB memory for AVR Linux!

I gave all mine away with the computers they were in (fully functional)
five years ago. I can't say I'm too sorry about it.

Brother laser printers take non-DDR laptop SIMMs for memory extensions.
The extension is required to use the postscript engine embedded in the
printer properly (the alternative is to fluff around with the
proprietory painful PC based raster egine instead). Those memories are
still for sale (ebay only, not trademe, select Asien-based instead of
USA-based sellers and you can afford the postage) and I think are very
similar electrically.
