Must be beta? I'd be keen to have a look. I must have missed it.
I'd wait to the final release before worrying about any CSS issues (if
that's what you mean).
But by all means submit your findings to them.

I just followed this up and am d/l now.
To save me trawling the MS site (which has a habit of frustrating the hell
out of me).
Can I run IE7 and IE8 side by side? Based on your "ie7 button" comment I'm
guessing I can?

No you cannot have them both on the same computer.
IE8 has the IE7 engine built in along with the new ie8 rendering engine.
They did this to retain compatibility with the old sites.

Have in mind that this beta version of ie8 is mainly for developers, a
new beta with more features will be released in a later date.

If you are not a developer eager to test stuff I advise you to keep your
distance from this unstable flaky beta.

I am a developer.
But a developer who is in the poor habit of using his development machine
(his homework play toy) as his leisure machine.

Use VirtualPC. If you use Differencing Virtual Hard Disks, you can even
have IE6, IE7 and IE8 on the same core virtual machine, for development
testing.

there is a way via a program called thinstall to have all versions of ie run
nativly side by side (not in a virtual machine)

but this is of course something that only geeks like me would do.. lol
