    The Windows XP building/convention/whatever has a queue+guard setup that's blocking access to Appl...oh, I don't know.

    Outdoor LED screens are controlled by windows xp pc's, this is what happens if someone doesn't turn the screensaver off

    Ah, so both buildings are owned by Apple? It just looked like an MS building beside an Apple one.

    ^no.

    Apple own the apple store.
    MS own the MS building.

    MS clearly own the outside area that both face onto.

    MS set up the queue and guards and run huge rope system so anyone who wants to enter the apple store has to walk through a few miles of rope to get in, much more awkward than just going into MS.
