Microsoft has moved to put an end to the rumour that Steve Ballmer would be speaking at this year’s WWDC keynote. According to Microsoft Corporate Communications Twitter:
Steve Ballmer not speaking at Apple Dev Conf. Nor appearing on Dancing with the Stars. Nor riding in the Belmont. Just FYI.
I was so looking forward to seeing the two Steves meet in the octagon…
Update: It appears that Trip Chowdhry of Global Equities has retracted his earlier claims as well. While there will be no Microsoft announcement at WWDC, his sources are still insisting that the two companies are working together on development tools.
