I once went to a store that looked almost identical. The only difference was that both the employees and the customers were smarter. And instead of a bunch of blue screens on the wall, they had computers that you could play with.

Pity they don’t put that much enthusiasm in the development side. We MIGHT get something that isn’t a total rip-off.

Wow.. it is just me or does all the cheering sound really really fake and empty in general? Like “Oh whee.. yay.. wooo wooo.. im getting paid to do this.. horrah”.

Microsoft did a great job of copying Apple in every way shape and forum with the new store opening – except they couldn’t replicate the enthusiasm.
