You should see 2 boxes, one with inline and one with linked styles...

Al Sparber - I disagree, IE8 in standards mode still is far from perfect, and 
when creating a corporate site that works in IE6/7/8 and going forward, its 
important to have a seperate style sheet that takes certain items into account. 
 Regardless, if you agree, this still appears to be a bug.

 Thanks-------

Try View > Styles > IE8

Then remove the id from the link tag in your IE8 conditional comment.
