Lucky dude.  :-)

Two off-the-wall thoughts would be to use QEMU (the ultimate in low 
cost) or a MIPS-based wireless/firewall/router.  A fair number of the 
cheap ones use versions of the Realtek SoC processor, which is MIPS 
architecture:

As another possibility, you may be able to pick up a Lemote computer 
which uses the Loongson processor:
