I've to use Windows for a college course and I was thinking of getting the Modern.ie VMs. However, before going for the massive download, I want to ascertain whether or not it actually contains a full Windows- meaning can I install softwares (compilers, editors, etc.) in the VMs or do they, somehow, boot directly into IE or something (knowing MS, anything is possible). I know about 90-day restriction; the course is shorter, fortunately. Also, I'm running Arch Linux on a 64 bit machine, if it matters.

The VM's are full copies of Window. Though technically they are only meant to be used for IE testing, there aren't many modification from a clean install of Windows with updates applied. See this blog post for an overview.
