Welcome To The Microsoft Store

Does this feel really eerie? I’ve heard that the MS Store was going to be similar to the Apple Store, but wow. The huge glass façade, floors, tables, the employees with their bright-colored shirts… I did notice the nice screens wrapping the walls, though, that was a nice touch. I expect BSODs to be wonderfully hilarious. ;-)

But this goes into a larger issue with Microsoft’s strategy in trying to copy the best of Apple. Sure, at first glance, it feels great, but I wonder if their version of the Genius Bar won’t require you to reserve a spot months in advance.
