Hi,
  I've keep a 2.8 image up to date at:

<ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu//Smalltalk/Squeak/2.8/files/Squeak2.8-2348.zip>

This started off as a 2.7 image.  The same thing has been done with 
2.9 at:

<ftp://st.cs.uiuc.edu//Smalltalk/Squeak/2.8/files/Squeak2.9a-2447.zip>

I used a 2.7 Mac VM until recently and then switched to a 2.8 Mac VM.

cheers

bruce
