  > Microsoft or Linux store...oh wait, you can’t Actually, there is a Microsoft Store. I have one at the mall nearest me. https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/locations/find-a-store https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/store/locations/find-a-store That said, when I walk by the Apple Store in the same location, there's easily 20x (often more) the number of customers roaming around. > they ARE dominating that space I doubt that. I bet more Macbook Pros are sold at Best Buy than Apple Stores. (unless you're defining the "space" as operating system manufacturers)

    when I walk by the Apple Store in the same location, there's easily 20x (often more) the number of customers roaming around. The only time I've ever seen a reasonable number of people in a Microsoft Store, it was the one in Bellevue, Washington — the city next to Redmond, for those of you not familiar with that city. Most of the time when I see Microsoft Stores, they're empty except for two or three husbands killing time playing games while their spouses shop.

  Apple and Microsoft are barely competitors anymore. Apple is the only high tech company with a material retail presence.
