The impact on you at home: Device Night is meant primarily as a way for retail professionals, such as computer shop owners and tech support pros, to get acquainted with the new devices. Retail types registered with Microsoft’s ExpertZone can also enter a draw for a new Surface, and receive “exclusive swag” during the event. Although the event is meant for the retail industry, members of the general public are also welcome to check it out. You can register for your local event on Microsoft’s Device Night site.
