I've used it on two different projects. There is an IE8.js out. ( 
http://code.google.com/p/ie7-js/ ) It really is a beautiful and useful 
script. IMO the main use of it is to save time not worrying about coding 
to IE deficiencies, especially with CSS. For example, use li:hover, 
opacity, png images, and proper box modeling all you want; IE8.js will 
automatically fix it.  It does a bang-up job. It isn't perfect on some 
of IE6's more complex bugs, but it always displays better than IE6 alone.

I find it to be a huge time saver and a really happy way to look forward 
to browser compliance. Spending half your time coding to and debugging 
for IE6 is not fun at all.
