To off-line test things, you might be able to get WinFLP via an MSDN subscription, they supply lots and lots of legacy OSes. But you do not get a live license this way, license(s) only usable for development (and testing and documentation and certification, etc.).

The VMware suggestion is off base. It's not free, and you need to install an OS into it just like with any physical hard drive/system.
WinFLP isn't on MSDN. VirtualPC is a free equivelant to VMWare Workstation for most applications. You still need the OS license though.
