Good. I hope every other physical retailer follows suit and as a society we transition to online/delivery for every need.

No they don't. Most of their business is through corporate channels and the cloud. Xbox sells itself quite easily. Surface is a glorified hardware reference line that hardly justifies branded retail presence.Just doesn’t seem right. Need some physical presence.
They were a bit confusing and mainly filled with kids who wanted to game on the Xbox. At least that was what I saw at the one here in my city. It was only opened for ~2 years, and sat directly above Apple.hmm makes me feel a little bad for never going in one. I always intended too but never did. But from a distance they always seemed kind of empty (or minimalist) both in terms of product and customers.
I wonder if this might happen to Apple Stores as well. The world will come out of this crisis a lot poorer than it was before, and Apple can’t live off the rich minority alone to keep all of its stores running. I’d say they’ll probably have to close a few stores in some locations around the world.
I hope you are just being sarcastic cause if you're not..you need to go out more.I did not even know Microsoft had stores.
There was a store at Mall of America. Right across from the Apple store. Whenever I walked by it the store was empty except for maybe someone playing video games. Either Surface products aren’t really growing or Microsoft doesn’t think it needs physical stores to showcase them.

Thats not realistic. People have in intense desire to see and touch particularly when making a purchase. There is also the immediacy factor when people want or need something “right now.” Many things can be purchased online without needing to be seen and touched, but for many other items thats akin to buying something sight unseen. You can do a lot of preliminary research online for items of interest, but many people will still want to physically interact with said items before they actually buy.Good.

The second sentence in the article says they will...

Funny how most of the Microsoft Stores are just two-three stores away from Apple Stores.
How are you going to buy shoes, glasses, cars, or many other things without being able to see and touch them first?
Just doesn’t seem right. Need some physical presence. How much could they be losing? Rent money and some staff salaries? Even just to keep your brand name visible more to consumers.
