Look at this:

"October 22nd marked the release of Windows 7, and to go along with that, Microsoft also opened up the first Microsoft store in Scottsdale, Arizona. From most reports, it’s pretty much what you would expect: Windows 7, Zunes, Xbox 360s, and all the fixings that go along with it.

However, there seems to be one very neat surprise up Microsoft’s sleeve.  On top of each store having a selection of PC games, there will also be a PC game kiosk where you can select from a wide array of PC games. Once you pick your games, head over to a customer service rep, tell them your name, and pay for your games, they print the disc, case, insert, and instruction manual right then and there in the back of the store. They are retail quality and the whole process takes about four minutes."

Pretty awesome, right?

Yeah Quite interesting actually. It might work in a game store better however since they sell games.
