Does anyone know of a free online 64-bit Ubuntu desktop, by any chance?

My solution for experiments is Porteus Linux. http://porteus.org/ The basic 250MB download lets you run Linux from a USB stick (even run everything in ram).
I'm even experimenting with the idea of making a Porteus Linux available with OE and GTK pre-installed so someone new to OE can just see things run.
I did a quick test of Phix this way.
- must change the permissions of Phix to executable
- bit of a mystery about how Phix finds (or does not find) the include files
You can even download a virtual box, and then run Windows!
Porteus is Slackware not Ubuntu.
