Windows 7 celebrates launch with burgers

Nothing says operating system quite like burgers.

The launch of Microsoft's Windows 7 went well enough yesterday in most places around the world, being celebrated with launch events and other gatherings of people who came together to praise the new operating system.

While it's important to note that it's finally something worthwhile upgrading to after eight years of being stuck with the now-ageing XP, the very last company expected to be celebrating Windows 7 was Burger King.

They've pimp-slapped all the disbelievers, frying up a special Windows 7 Whopper that comes endowed with seven patties of burger meat, along with the usual condiments.

It's a very strange way to get attention for the new operating system, but at a price of 777 yen (AU$9.15) it seems a delicious way to get into the Windows 7 spirit.

Check it out below, via tomshardware.

Jeruselem Oct 23, 2009 11:22 AM	I'm sure there's Japanese people who'd eat that.
once_i_was_a_maggot Oct 23, 2009 11:25 AM	Who could seriously eat all of that?
CloAkEd Oct 23, 2009 11:59 AM	I would give it a go! Looks like a tastey burger.
ColonelSanders Oct 23, 2009 12:36 PM	Needs a slice of cheese between each meat patty

Argotha Oct 23, 2009 1:41 PM	I think I had a worse reaction to this that I did reading about the green slushy...
ColonelSanders Oct 23, 2009 4:08 PM	Is there any upgrade on this burger?
Jeruselem Oct 23, 2009 4:16 PM	Yeah, 7 packs of fries ...
majestic975 Oct 23, 2009 4:38 PM	Windows 7 Whopper,now you can be as fat and bloated as your OS.
2SHY Oct 23, 2009 8:45 PM	Its on youtube if you look hard enough. Can't fit in your mouth. Its that big.
fliptopia Oct 23, 2009 11:32 PM	Wouldn't apple be the "very last company expected to be celebrating Windows 7"?
ArcaneMagik Oct 24, 2009 7:45 AM	I'll wait for service pack 1 on that burger.
LogicprObe Oct 25, 2009 11:41 PM	Crazy Japs!
Elfarch Oct 26, 2009 1:08 AM	I often wolf done a kilo or two of lean meat of many different species in a sitting but the fat content there would do me in, despite it's tastyness. As to Win 7 I'm sure they wouldn't be happy with the association sine this version seems to actually work correctlyish.
DarkForceMage Oct 26, 2009 3:35 AM	I'v already tried this at macdonalds except I ordered a 2 pounder. 8 patties. Except I squished it down to about the size of a big mac, & ate it with alot of drink. I'm not fat either. lol

ColonelSanders Oct 26, 2009 2:53 PM	Just watched it..crazy. So wrong but yet so right ;) Needs cheese though! All the juice dripping down when he takes the 1st bite is pretty gross
