I don't know what the restrictions are but it might be worth looking at
http://testdrive.hp.com which claims to offer alpha, itanium, PA-RISC,
StrongARM and x86 systems running BSD, HP-UX, Linux, OpenVMS and Tru64:

"These systems are provided as a convenience for developers and systems
integrators worldwide who would like to test their software applications
on x86, PA-RISC, Alpha, Itanium, or StrongARM systems but don't
currently have easy or convenient access to such systems."

I'd try it myself if I could get past the firewall at work or if my
firewall at home hadn't caught on fire yesterday (yes really)...
