if you look at the Microsoft Authorised Refurbisher Scheme 
(http://www.mar.partners.extranet.microsoft.com/MARDirectoryByLoc.aspx) 
you'll find most schemes operating in Australia, add that to the 
ComputerBank/computer angels/itshare/bettong open source groups around 
australia and you've almost got it covered apart from the government 
schemes which operate in sa (and probably other states) and federally.
