Microsoft’s Stores

A recent gallery of pictures on CNET show’s the similarities of the Microsoft store ‘idea’ to the Apple Stores (I put that word in quotes because I don’t think Microsoft have had an original idea since Gates thought it would be a good ‘idea’ to charge for software).

One difference that strikes me however is the lack of customers in the store. I have never been to an Apple store that is this empty. Perhaps it was just taken at a bit of a slow period but it doesn’t look good.
