I'm sorry, that's neither fundamental nor a question. It's quite well known for a very long time:

Microsoft: "What other operating systems? Oh you mean the last version of Windows? Umm, yeah OK if you really want to do that you can, I guess."

Apple: "Apple does not acknowledge past or future releases of OS X, there is only the current version of OS X. Other operating systems? Why would you want to do that?" Seriously, not a joke, the instant 10.8 came out, you could not legally obtain 10.7; and Apple notoriously does not comment on unreleased products. Windows? Really you want it on your Mac? And what's Linux again?

Acknowledging doesn't even happen, let alone honoring.
