Did you do any Christmas shopping at the "temporary" official Microsoft Store in the St. Louis Galleria Mall? Originally opened just for the holidays, the St. Louis Business Journal is reporting that the store will become a permanent fixture.

According to the Business Journal, the location is as one of six nationwide chosen by Microsoft to become a full line retail store. The decision was based on the "great success" of the temporary spot. 

The software giant's rival, Apple, has an official store in the mall as well.
