With Microsoft's App store growing at 500 apps per day, do you think it will ever become a threat to Apple's app store? 

I think Microsoft has a long way to go, but with the introduction of an App Store with Windows 8 they are headed in the right direction. I like how Microsoft is making their operating system available across several devices, from PCs, to tablets to smartphones. I think that will really help the user familiarize themselves with Windows 8.

I believe some of these cues have come from Apple, where Apple is still making separate operating systems, but they offer some of the same features across all their devices. Its really nice to be able to work on something on your iMac and then be able to pick up your iPad and pick up where you left off.

What are your thoughts about the new Windows 8 App Store?
