For what it's worth. Microsoft have—for several years now—offered free Windows XP images with IE6/7/8RC and now IE8 as well in Microsoft Virtual PC format. Microsoft Virtual PC (the application) is also available for free, making this the most acurate and low-cost option available. The only drawback is that these images are time-bombed and only work for about 3-4 months. However, new ones are usually available as soon as the old ones expire.
You can find the current images here: http://www.microsoft.com/Downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=21eabb90-958f-4b64-b5f1-73d0a413c8ef&displaylang=en Additionally, as Microsoft Virtual PC (the application, not the images) only run on the Windows platform, this is pretty useless for Linux of Mac users. The good news however is that VirtualBox—which does run on both Linux and Mac OS X—natively supports MS VPC images. You'd have to check the EULA that comes with the IE app Compat images to see if this is allowed.
