October 26 is the day Microsoft will open its first flagship first brick-and-mortar retail store.
The first flagship is the Fifth Avenue New York City store, just a few block away from Apple’s Fifth Avenue store. The ribbon-cutting happens at 11:30 a.m. and doors open at noon.
The five-floor New York City retail outlet, at more than 22,000 square feet, is the largest of Microsoft’s 110 retail stores to date.
