The rumor that Microsoft is interested in buying Canonical doesn't seem to go away, despite the fact that there is no real basis to it. We’ve already explained why that is unlikely to happen, but people still don't listen, so here are some more reasons why the rumor is perfect for April 1.
Reports that Microsoft supposedly wants to buy Canonical are not new. Every once in a while this information shows up from various sources, but it doesn't have any kind of support to back it. The recent chatter about a Canonical buyout started with some suppositions in one article, but it didn't go away as it usually does, and it now has a life of its own. We tried to deflate the situation early on, but now more publications have picked up this so-called story, and it's almost getting out of control.
