Windows 7
Zune HD
Windows retail stores
New logo (I'm not sure if it's the new Window logo but it looks to be the retail store's logo)
Big 360 update
Bing





Notice the "I'm a PC" shirt, like Microsoft is trying to use it to their advantage.



Their stores will feature their surface.

I think that logo is just being used on their retail stores.  Though, it's nice to see them getting serious about revamping their image.

I don't really like the logo, but I do agree with you. It seems like they're finally realizing they need to step up their game a little bit, and so far they're doing a decent job of it.
They're such a huge company, but they do often have neat projects going on, it's just that most of it goes nowhere.

Yay one of the first stores is in Scottsdale; I'll surely check it out.  hocuspocus;

I dont really care for most of the products, but It's good for the economy so thumbup;

The version corresponding to the version of Vista installed on their new computer. So yeah, Home Premium in most cases. n_u
