Both inside and outside, Windows 7 can be found at the flagship Saks Fifth Avenue this holiday season? What exactly am I talking about? I’ll explain — in several areas throughout the store, including the shoe floor, Windows 7 has created lounges to surf the web and watch TV, as well as send holiday tweets via the Windows 7 operating system that are then displayed in the store windows of Saks! It’s a new concept, and true way to make the windows interactive, as well as inclusive of the customers!

Yuli Ziv of MyItThings and I had the opportunity to preview the lounge and learn more about the new collaboration, as well as get a sneak peak at the windows before they opened to the public! For the unveiling, Broadway singing star Kristin Chenoweth performed, and Steve Sadove, CEO & chairman of Saks, as well as Kathleen Hall, general manager of Windows 7 marketing and Microsoft were on hand for the event. If you’re interest is piqued, you can participate virtually via twitter, by tweeting your holiday wishes via twitter with the hashtag, “#holidaywindows”.
