Is M$ even selling Surface tablets in their stores?  I thought I read somewhere that they were only available online.

Yep, I know what you mean, Kris. To me there is value in buying a thing if its boxed software, even though its not a gadget. Its mine, I got it, cool.But it isnt exciting or needed. Or a Bed, Bath and Beyond compared to a Best Buy!

My point was that is not as exciting. The figures are as I see it misleading. You won't make a trek to a M$ store to woo over boxes of Office, nor over Xbox as you get them everywhere. You might over Surface. Apple, many reasons to go there, even to browse. Many cooler things to buy. M$ isnt a typical retail brick and mortar business

I was trying to paint a picture. Yea. Software is a thing but what does windows feel like or smell like? Ok. Turd jokes aside I mean you can't touch it. You can hold an iPad. You can't hold windows. M$ sees this. It's why we have a surface. A Kin. A Zune. To touch m$. Make sense?
