Judging by the leaks things are moving rather fast at Microsoft. Microsoft has employed Lippicott as consultants for the concept, principle anddesign of its retail stores.
The pictures coming out of Microsoft I should admit are impressive.
People cannot be kind when it comes to Microsoft I guess. It is said that the design concept of the Microsoft retail stores take the best elements from Apple, Sony and other “flagship”. I guess you cannot blame these unkind commentators when you realize that Microsoft cannot create some thing original even if its as basic as the design of its retail store. And this coming from the land of milk and honey of intellectual property rights.
The products that will be vying for attracting consumers attention will no doubt be Windows 7, Xbox, PCTV, Windows Mobile. The design is oriented to attract Microsoft’s average customer whom it calls “Emily”.
