Microsoft promos Win 7 with BK deal

Confirming our belief that Japan is at once among the coolest and craziest places on this planet we all call home is Burger King's exclusive Windows 7 Whopper. Seven stacked beef patties extend your usual Whopper to over five inches in height and the whole thing costs an appropriate ¥777 (or $8.55). It'll be available for one week only -- or seven days, get it? Join us past the break to see the full towering size of this meaty monstrosity.

Update: Andy Yang, our Engadget Chinese editor, has read the smallprint and noted that in fact only the first 30 customers each day will get the Win 7 Whopper at ¥777, with the rest shelling out a cool ¥1,450 ($17.10) for the privilege. Way to break with the number 7 theme, guys.

Ugh...*looks for some Alka Seltzer*

 

[big_j_ny]

That's epic........but I'm amazed it's the Japanese committing this act. I honestly thought most newly fatty innovations are created from American restaurants, wow

 

[Aoiblue]

That....actually doesn't look too bad. I'd eat that.

 

[Bolt]

PROTEIN. I want.

 

[Kivat]

hahaha I'm not spending money on that. heh

If you're skinny or in good shape and you eat this, it's instant obesity for you. But if you're fat, it's instant heart attack. :laugh:

What's funny is that it's being billed as only availibe in Japan yet all you need to do is go to any BK and request more Patties with ur burger for extra fee of course.

But yeah... what is Windows 7?, the one after Vista?.

But yeah... what is Windows 7?, the one after Vista?.

It's the newest operating system from Microsoft. They announced it on NBC this morning.
