For most of the last decade,
Apple (NASDAQ:
AAPL) was the only major tech company with hundreds of retail outlets worldwide.
That changed after
Microsoft (NASDAQ:
MSFT) started opening a series of retail outlets nationwide. Now the Windows maker -- along with Apple rival
Samsung (OTC:
SSNLF) -- is opening stores-within-stores at numerous
Best Buy (NYSE:
BBY) locations.
Last week Microsoft opened
its first store in Metro Detroit and another in
Indianapolis.

Dell (NASDAQ:
DELL) -- compare to Apple's retail outlets? Click through the slideshow to find out.
