I still remember the scene in the “Devil's Advocate” that saw Al Pacino, playing the role of the devil, purposely putting his finger into a bowl of holy water at a church, making it boil in the process. That cheeky look on his face was a masterstroke in acting, and I suppose reading about Microsoft opening up their first retail store in Northern California that lies a stone's throw away from an Apple store is somewhat in the same vein. This store is around 4,000 square feet in size, and lies around 7 miles away from Apple's Cupertino headquarters. There were plenty of people queuing up overnight to join in the opening bash.
