Microsoft is continuing full-speed ahead with its plan to open more brick-and-mortar retail stores.
Microsoft will be opening 75 Microsoft Stores in the next two to three years, Chief Operating Officer Kevin Turner told attendees of the Microsoft Worldwide Partner Conference on July 13. (In 2009, Turner announced Microsoft’s retail store plan for the first time to partners at the Worldwide Partner Conference, noting that the goal was to open stores as close to Apple’s as possible.) Look for stores in major retail centers in the U.S. with high volumes near you.
