Apple Store’s new neighbor… the Zune of retail?

First they gave us the Zune after the success of the iPod and now, in a similar move, Microsoft is opening retail stores following in the foot steps of Apple Stores. Not only that, their plan is to open the stores in close proximity to Apple’s retail chain… Maybe hoping to maybe grab some of their customers away?
Here is a statement from a Microsoft rep given to CNET
As we progress on our retail strategy there willbe scenarios where we have stores in proximity to Apple. We are on track to open stores in the Fall time frame.
Is this going to be like the Zune of retail? I guess we will see when Fall comes.
