Microsoft has today updated their twitter account with the first real shots of a Microsoft retail store under construction. As you can see, it’s not very spectacular, but what is great is the fact that these retail stores are actually coming sooner rather than later.

And, if you look closely, you’ll see that the picture gives us a hint as to what Microsoft’s retail stores will specialize in; Windows 7, Xbox 360, Bing, Microsoft Office and Zune. Perhaps we will see some Windows Mobile touting handsets on sale at these locations as well.
