I’ve just read what has to be the shortest press release I’ve ever seen from Microsoft. It says, in full:
REDMOND, Wash., Oct. 16, 2008 – Microsoft Corp. issued the following statement regarding Yahoo!:
“Our position hasn’t changed. Microsoft has no interest in acquiring Yahoo!; there are no discussions between the companies.â€
So what’s brought about this denial then?
