| I'm wondering if the new Money Plus program has made it to retail stores yet like Best Buy, Costco or Office Depot? It seems to me that Microsoft has a new marketing strategy this year in the distribution of the Money product. First sell it online via its web site. Then market it via the internet to online stores like Amazon.com. Finally ship to retail stores for distribution. Am I right about this? It may be an attempt by Microsoft to see the customer response to various distribution techniques with the plan to market Money as a yearly service upgrade in the future. What do you think? Steve |
