Where can I get System 7.6.1 or 8.0 for my Macintosh emulator and my Real Macitosh LC580? I don't have any money so I can't buy it, I don't even have a Apple Macintosh store in my town.

You might be able to download it from Apple at http://www.info.apple.com/support/oldersoftwarelist.html or http://www.info.apple.com/usen/legacy/ I didn't look through it, but I remember at one time you were able to download System 4, 6 and possibly 7. Maybe they have 7.6 and 8 now.

Kerry, thank you, if you could just make some disk images and e-mail them to me that would be plenty enough, and if you ever need anything I'll try to help! Thanks again!

Regards piracy...yeah - good suggestion. OS 7.6.1 is a freely available/distributable update - so now piracy worries there. However, you will need a full copy of OS 7.6 (which is not public freeware!), and 7.6.1 is merely an update, not a complete OS.
OS 8 - also a commercial only release still - although if you wait long enough (months? years?) it may become freeware like OS6 & 7.5.5
