Did you try looking in Cakewalk SI Drums or Session Drummer 3?  SI has some lo-fi kits, and Session Drummer has some Electronic & Hip Hop and Rhythm Machine kits.

Session Drummer has some 808's and you can isolate the kick with the built-in drum mixer.

For as good 808 and 909 sounds as you'll find in a plugin take a look at d16’s emulations of the hardware.

If you've never heard 'raw' 808/909 kicks be prepared for a surprise though, they're actually pretty basic sounds until further processed.

Just FYI, the Roland TR-808 was an analog device.  It did not use drum samples.  Instead, the kick used a sine wave, pitched real low.  This could probably be re-created in any virtual analog synth.

yes indeed the 808 was not an actual kick drum sound it was electronically originally the TR-808 was not an instant hit on the market as opposed to the TR-707 the model before it but as time went on the sound became very popular in clubs and such..my original post refereed to the sound i hear on the song mentioned, but that is probably due to the processing done, could you imagine a classic Beatles song with an 808 on it?!!!! dont think ringo starr would have approved that

I think the guidance given in post #2 above about "fattening" up the kick should get you in the ballpark with either a sampled or synthesized 808 kick sound.
 
The example uses processing on the "raw" sound with tube saturation, EQ, compression, limiter, etc.
