Microsoft celebrates Windows 7 in Japan with 7-layer Whopper

Microsoft and Burger King team up in Japan to celebrate the launch of Windows 7 with a monstrous "limited edition" seven-layer burger.
Windows 7 hits today, and we'll be posting something on what that means for PC gamers later on - but in the meantime feast your eyes on this monstrous promotional campaign that Microsoft is running in Japan.
For the next seven days, Burger King will be a selling a gigantic seven-layer Whopper, which is apparently a gargantuan five-inches thick. The price? Y777, of course - at least for the first 30 customers each day. If you're customer number 31, you'll be paying Y1450. Given that a double Whopper is loaded with just shy of 1,000 calories, we're guessing that this one's a good few days worth of "nutrition."

That burger looks about as appealing as upgrading to Windows 7.
I will stick to a regular whopper and Windows XP SP3 thank you.

Mac users are like little dogs, barking real loud to make up for their inferiority complex. Here is a FACT:

As os September of 2009, Windows had a market share of 92.77 vs. a 5.12 marketshare for Mac. And that is including some lost marketshare due to the problems of Vista. Windows 7 has gotten really good reviews so marketshare will not change much.
