Yes, my fancy Linux distro easily provides older releases for download. It also provides virtualization software in the repositories. What's your point again?
The thing for Microsoft is, they *have* to allow this explicitly, because otherwise you would be committing piracy. Not everyone with Windows 7 has a legal Windows XP license. In the open source world, licensing is not a problem, so they don't have to bundle it.
