Microsoft has partnered with Burger King in Japan to promote their Vista service pack, er, “Windows 7” with a seven-patty Whopper hamburger costing ¥777 (US$8.50).
The burger is approximately 12.5 cm (5″) tall:
MacDailyNews Take: One bloated puke-inducing heart attack-in-a-box deserves another.
[Thanks to MacDailyNews Reader “Eric L.” for the heads up.]
It fits. Windows 7 full of blood gurgling arteries chocking crap. Just like these fast food burgers. All that crap just ends up on your ass… oh yeah great tie in with the MS Big Ass Table. LOL
Windows 7: More is more.
Windows 7: Seven layers of GUI.
Windows 7: The last OS you will ever need. (you’ll be dead)
Windows 7: The sick sense.
And for the in-show sponsorship should they land “The Simpsons”…
Mmmmm, Windows 7… alahglhaglhgalhgl….
A&W;was going to do this and call it the CEO Burger.
I got this off my prototype Time Capsule, from Dec 7, 2009.
Dec 7, 2009 (AP)
Today the Center For Disease Control announced an unexplained spike in STD cases for the month of November. Christie Crotchrot, spokesperson for the CDC, said “It really is a mystery why November registered so many cases when usually that month is one of the quietest of the year. We think there was some event that brought so many virus-infected people together during the prior month, but we’re unsure of what that may have been. We’re still looking into it.”
In a possibly related issue, the CDC also said it has detected a sharp rise in the number of cases of anger-induced depression which began at about the same time as the increase in STD cases. Ms. Crotchrot commented, “If these two events actually are related then we may have something to go on, as it seems that the event that brought these people together either attracted those with a pre-condition of depression or the event itself caused it.”
In other news, Microsoft reported that the number of people attending their sponsored Windows 7 parties throughout the country on October 21 exceeded all their expectations. This reporter has been trying to contact some of the participants in these parties for an interview but for some unexplained reason, all contacted so far seem to be on sick leave.
And to think I (used to) prefer Burger King.
That sandwich looks GROSS!
They really should complete the package with a beverage. And, for that, the only choice is Brawndo, cause its got electrolytes.
*speechless*
Clogged arteries on top of Windows stress. Micorsoft must really be trying to kill off its user base before they get a chance to switch.
Someone’s gotta say it:
Windows 7: Where’s the Beef?
I wish they sold them here. I’d like to go in with six other people, buy just one ‘Windows 7 Whopper’, sit down and pull out a loaf of bread and all the condiments, and then proceed to make seven burgers out of one.
I wonder if they would say anything?
My Japanese isn’t very good, but I think it translates to: “While your computer pukes on Windows 7, you can puke on this!”
The Burger King 7-patty Whopper actually symbolizes the whopper of a lie Microsoft is telling when they present Windoze 7 as if it were something entirely new. It’s like Chevrolet trying to convince their customers that they’re really getting a BMW with a Chevy nameplate. Riiiiight…
And the ‘Wow’ just keeps on coming…
Or is it more ‘WTF’?
Is that the enterprise edition?
Watch out for the stack overflow.
It’s gonna crash without support.
Gives new meaning to the phrase “Bloatware.” Somehow this is very fitting…
“Have a heart attack your way!”
(not that I don’t like a good hamburger now and then!)
Another case of Microsoft playing a game of ketchup?
Meanwhile, over at the Olive Garden, they’re serving up 7-pound plates of spaghetti.
Or so I hear.
Wow…just wow.
It says to the first 30 customers for the 22nd to the 28th – okay, now someone please make something out of that related to ‘Doze 7… I’m too tired…
Now with 7 times more E-Coli…

“In other news, Microsoft reported that the number of people attending their sponsored Windows 7 parties throughout the country on October 21 exceeded all their expectations.”
…you mean somebody turned up?!
@MDN. Very funny take. I suspect that W7, like the burger, will be soggy, not snappy!
I wonder what BK will come up with when the first Service Pack of Windoze 7 releases?? A custom-sized box to act as an improved firewall???
