With the Surface, Microsoft beats Google, not Apple

Last Friday, I drove to the Florida Mall in Orlando, walked past the Apple Store, and went right into the Microsoft Store. The Apple Store was packed. I would've felt pretty bad if the Microsoft Store were empty, but to my delight and surprise, it was even more crowded with wall-to-wall Surface RT tablets, every new make and model of desktop and laptop, all running Windows 8 and a crowd loving the launch event at the store.Adam Sandler Derek Jeter Jennifer Lopez Rick Warren Scarlett Johansson Katie Couric Maria Sharapova Valentino Rossi Halle Berry James Patterson
