How ever it is very strange to me, because I think such "cooperation"
straight lead to bankruptcy: recall Nokia mobile busines.

For Nokia, it led to the acquisition of their entire mobile business by
Microsoft, just to head off an impending high-profile defection to
Android.

In other words, it was a matter of saving corporate face. A very
expensive, multi-billion-dollar way of saving corporate face, but who in
the company is going to argue with the C-level execs?

Canonical has been cosying up to Microsoft more and more lately. And they
could indeed end up being acquired by same at some point. The difference
is that the Linux company could actually make a net positive contribution
to the overall bottom line.
