Redmond has just announced that it will open two new stores in the United States, in an attempt to bring its latest products closer to buyers across the country.

Both Connecticut and Ontario will get new stores in the near future, but Microsoft has refused to provide any specifics on the official opening date.

“We have big news to announce! We'll be opening new Microsoft retail locations at Westfarms in Hartford and at Square One Shopping Centre in Mississauga, Ontario!” the company announced.

Microsoft has a total 78 stores in the United States and Canada, but the company wants to expand its retail network to a total of 100 locations in the next couple of years. At the same time, stores in Europe, including in the United Kingdom, are also said to be planned.
