"Essentially, Microsoft is taking the best elements from the Apple Store, Sony Style and other "flagship" stores. The main focuses are going to be Windows 7, Xbox, PCTV (Windows Media Center) Surface and Windows Mobile, revolving around this concept customer they call "Emily," who's basically a younger version of your mom, since they make all the buying decisions."

As a nice touch, you may celebrate your birthday in the Microsoft Sotre in your area...so its basically like a McDonalds for Microsoft Geeks

I mean right now pretty much every gamer uses (or has to use) Windows, sure it may be able to handle games, but there is also much overhead which is just not needed for games. I mean, yes it is important that you can do other stuff to, like web browsing and such, but there shouldnt be unnecessary stuff. So what should a Gaming OS have ? What do we not need ? And more important, why hasnt anyone made one yet ?"
