Are there any ISPs who would take a virtual machine we supply to them and
run it on their premises, occasionally stopping the virtual machine to do a
full image backup? We would access the computer by terminal services.

I'm looking for this at a rate of under $30/month. I'm aware of vendors
who would do this for $300/month, which seems laughable considering they
could run 20 virtual machines on a $5K server. We figured our cost to do
it internally on our own servers around $60/month per virtual machine, so
I'm hoping someone out there has cheaper electricity and economy of scale.
