You could host your current version of XP on one of the free Linux distributions like Ubuntu, Fedora, Centos, Debian, etc. There are any number of free VMs that can run under Linux like Oracle's Virtualbox, qemu, kvm, xen, etc. Then you would only be out the cost of the Linux computer.
In this senario I would go with a computer running a 64 bit amd or intl cpu. I would run a 64 bit version of the VM software. The VM guest OS(s) could be either 32 bit or 64 bit depending on your needs.
