Microsoft is expanding their network of retail stores in the coming years. There’s only a handful of them now, but over the next 3 years they are going to expand to at least 75 new stores around the country.
Via Neowin:
I really wasn't aware of the fact Microsoft had 'brick and mortor' stores.
Whole new meaning to hardware acceleration.
Interesting when you consider that the software (specifically Office) will be in a stripped down form (Word and Excel) on new computers, and Office will be an online app. Well, maybe not so odd when you consider that MS still sells a lot of hardware.
Hm, that map of existing stores is wrong. I've been to the Lone Tree, Colorado store many times, and it is not in Wyoming
Wow, and it looks like they have Indianapolis on the list! Nice! 
And of course, Kansas City isn't important enough to have one, not that I really care that much about Microsoft.
It seems that MS has not got the hang of that internet thingy.
Would this be because they are moving into the mobile market? Compete against the apple stores?
That's pretty much exactly what the MS Stores are, right down to the floorplan. Except with a corner for Xboxs in the back . They have a little more room to walk around though, which I like. A surprisingly large amount of people do actually go to the one by me, although I guess if that weren't the case they (probably) wouldn't be building more.
I don't know, that didn't stop Gateway...
My family and I must have been one of the very few people to go to a Gateway store, where my dad put in the order for the computer I am using now, while my brother and I played the Star Wars: Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast demo which caused us to get the full version as our first PC game.
They did not use Google Maps!
