Microsoft Surface sales numbers higher than tought? Interesting opinion …
“If Microsoft’s tablet has a sales problem — and let’s strut that I-F again — distribution is the reason. The product isn’t overpriced or flawed. Microsoft only sells Surface through the company store; that’s online and (by my count) 66 retail shops. Sixty stores are in the continental United States, five in Canada and another in Puerto Rico. There are only a limited number of places anyone can buy the tablet, which limits how many the company can sell. What matters more is how many Microsoft sells per store. Pundits crying “fail” are nincompoops of the nth degree. If any of them bothered to look at Apple Store, they would understand.”
