Default All Versions of Windows on one DVD!!!


Hey I just got an idea and want to share with you guys. I hope that someone will know how to do this thingie.....

Well as of everyone has all the Windows distributions on CDs so I thought whether there was a way to have all of'em on a DVD and if they can be installed thru some Menu kinda thing by booting thru that DVD????

Is it possible guys? Does anybody have a solution???

I dunno whther my idea is new or not, whether anybody else has thought over it before or not, but it just came to my mind and shared with you!!

That's it! Am waiting for your replies!!!

PS And mind ya, anyone who thinks that I'm speaking of pirated versions, shud know that I've originals of 98SE, ME and XP!!

Why don't you share it with Bill Gates or Steve Jobs, dude? They are there to choke money from all sorts of way, and you're thinking of better ideas? Don't even think of it, I suggest!
Think for a while, we're paying every way to communicate. How about talking to you after payin' you some bucks? But that's outta context. Good thought, bro!

Dude, I have such a thing in one cd.
The cd is 9-in-1 windows bootable cd.
Here's the release note:
Code:
                         R E L E A S E   N O T E S                        ºÛ²°º
 º                                                                          ºÛ²°º
 º   This CD contains 9 versions of Windows XP with Service Pack 2          ºÛ²°º
 º integrated, straight from Microsoft. Uxtheme.dl_ was patched, so         ºÛ²°º
 º non-standard themes can be used. An untouched uxtheme.dl_ is located in  ºÛ²°º
 º the TOOLS directory if it is wanted. This release is ISO because of the  ºÛ²°º
 º special filesystem required. ISO's can be made of any of the versions of ºÛ²°º
 º windows on the CD. There is a 'special' version of Windows XP Media      ºÛ²°º
 º Center 2005, an 'Integrated' ISO which can be created. This integrated   ºÛ²°º
 º ISO's has both CD's of Media Center in one for easier installation. The  ºÛ²°º
 º CD contains:                                                             ºÛ²°º
 º                                                                          ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Home OEM with Service Pack 2                              ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Home Retail with Service Pack 2                           ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Home Upgrade with Service Pack 2                          ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Media Center 2005 with Service Pack 2                     ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Pro Corp with Service Pack 2                              ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Pro OEM with Service Pack 2                               ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Pro Retail with Service Pack 2                            ºÛ²°º
 º     Windows XP Pro Upgrade with Service Pack 2
But admittedly, u this works only because these versions share a major part of themselves.

Sometime back I saw a CD containing Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Professional, Windows 2000 Advanced Server and Windows 98.

I saw one more CD containing Windows XP Professional & Windows XP Home Edition both.

Is this thing legal? MS clearly clearly says it's not legal (ie distributing/ creating CD/DVD).
In case, anyone wants to open this thread can PM me.
