Last night in New York City, Microsoft and Lucky Magazine hosted a holiday soiree that showcased the hottest tech gifts from Microsoft this holiday. Guests experienced Surface tablets, Windows 8 PCs, Windows Phones, hot titles for Xbox 360 and more holiday goodies. You can find information about all of these products at www.microsoftstore.com.
Here is what some of the attendees had to say, via Twitter:

Lucky Magazine Style Editor Lori Bergamotto is so fashionable, she matches her Windows 8 start screen to her sweater:
