A Brick And Mortar Mess?

February 16th, 2009

Microsoft has announced that they will be opening brick and mortar retail stores around the United States and confirmed the appointment of David Porter as vice president of Retail Stores.

Porter, a former VP at Wal-Mart, will need to determine “the timing, locations and specific details of the stores.”

The new move will help the software giant to compete with Apple, which has 251 retail stores that brought in $1.74 billion USD revenue for 2008.

I’m sorry, but given the choice of walking into an Apple store or a Microsoft store, I would definitely walk into the Apple store. You have no idea what viruses you could catch in a Microsoft store that could lead to you turning blue and dropping dead.
