If you have a computer with a supported NIC (an Intel NIC will do) and some time, you could download the stripped down ESXi 3.5 60-days-evaluation version from VMware, dd it onto an USB thumb drive, boot from it and provide some storage via NFS from a second computer. You could also provide storage from a local harddisk if you have a supported SCSI controller (SATA may also work, I'm not sure). That's how I started playing with ESX before we had out testing cluster available.
