It wouldn't make sense for Apple to support their previous OS versions as long as MS, really. I'd guess that demand for the continued support of business software likely plays a big part in this (not to mention just having hundreds of millions more clients out there). Large, infrequently overhauled business and government systems probably demand longer-term support, in general.
