Of course not. But they can’t exactly build a great customer satisfaction foundation by not changing their products or tech support and instead putting themselves into shopping malls. I guess I just don’t get it.

And we can’t hate the idea because it’s from Microsoft; it’s not. It’s from Apple!

What a store that sells stuff from a company? Wow, never seen that prior to Apple doing it. /s

Companies like Sony, and Gateway2000 had stores like this back in the 90s.

It’s not an either or thing. MS is a big company and with this it’s getting bigger. When they branched out into peripheral hardware they didn’t pull resources from the hardware division, they just got bigger. When they added gaming to their software business they didn’t pull resources from the OS or application sections, they added again. Now they’re adding again, nothing about this means less people working on the next version of Windows trying to respond to customer demands (which they actually do contrary to popular belief).
