Microsoft Visitors Center

On Monday, My son and I went to the Microsoft Visitors Center.  Its located in B92 and its a great place visit it you need something to do with your child on a day off of school.  The visitors center has a company store, small cafe, mini museum and display area that you can play with all the Microsoft toys.    There is 6 xbox stations to play 6 different games.  There are games for all ages.  Bryson and I played Lego Pirates of the Caribbean and A sonic game.  They also had Halo, Spiderman Edge of Time, and Gears of War 3. They also had 4 Xbox Kinect stations where you could play Dance Central 2 and Kinect Sports.

Also on display was a cell phone garden with about 15 phone from various makers, all with the windows operation system. A laptop and tablet garden was there too.   All for you to play  with and try out!  There were 2 large Microsoft Surface computers.  See the pic where my son and I are playing checkers.  Surface is a large computer that has a touch screen interface.  Check out the link to learn more.   My favorite thing was the computers with the Microsoft Worldwide Telescope program on them.  This place is super cool.

What I like:

• Being able to try out Kinect
• It was quiet
• There was a coffee kiosk with snacks down the hall 
• I also liked trying out the Windows phone
• Plenty of parking

What I would like to see:

• The cafe take debit cards
• Wish it was open on the weekends
