The problem I see is that I don't think there is any legitimate way
to aquire A/UX except on an Apple hard drive.  They don't sell it on
floppies.

Please, let's not steal.

As for getting memory, one of the ways people have mentioned is to buy
a 4 meg A/UX machine and throw away the A/UX.  (Apple ships 4 meg A/UX
Mac II's very quickly, otherwise long waiting list.)
