That made me a little sad, but also made me laugh.

LOL, Mac lovers there for the freebies.

It made me laugh too. Not because of the whole Microsoft thing, but because of some of the comments. It was funny.

At least they didn't go to be molested, like at an Apple store launch.

That's what happens at Apple launches?? Had I known, I would have started going years ago.

Walk in backwards and you might get your tits cupped.

Unfortunately for you, the preponderance of male "geniuses" is profound.

Indeed. Though it can be helpful when I'm out of warranty.

We're going to need to figure out how to get more females up in there, though.

This sounds like The Microsoft Store we walked past while going to the Apple Store to pick up my friends new iMac.

It was bigger than the Apple store but nearly empty in a very, very busy mall.
The Apple store was totally mobbed as usual, but we got in and out with an iMac in a half hour or so.

Just wait a bit, it'll be all empty in no time. With just a few employees standing around or going online and bashing Apple in MR....

Maybe I'll stop in and buy a Zune or something.....
Nah. I'd probably get kicked out for having an iPad or laughing at their products.

Crowd bribed to show up. Now that is funny.

When a reporter yelled out to the crowd, "who wants to buy a Microsoft product," only one hand was raised.
