Microsoft?

Or
Try the MSPress book sets. Used to include an eval copy.

Used books may or maynot have the CD due to someone losing it.

Virtual PC is only a virtualization software. It gives you a "software comptuer" that you can use as a software package. So yes, with virtual PC, you will still need a cd.

Have you tried eBay?

Check the link by Plantwiz - the whole set of MCSE 2000 Core books and the CD you are looking for:

This boxed set helps you prepare for the four examinations you must pass to qualify as a Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer (MCSE) under the Windows 2000 curriculum. You'll find lots of information on Windows 2000 and its networking capabilities in this kit; specifically, it comprises four books (Windows 2000 Server, Windows 2000 Professional, Active Directory Services, and Network Infrastructure Administration) and a CD-ROM (a 120-day evaluation version of Windows 2000 Server).

It looks like less than a buck ($1.00) and shipping will get it delivered to your door.
