Japanese people love technology, that's no secret, but they also love their hamburgers. With the launch of Microsoft's Windows 7, the Japanese franchises of Burger King are rolling out a sweet promotion to go with it. Ladies and Gentlemen, I give you the magnificant, gigantic, preposterous, gut-busting, Seven-Patty Whopper.

A creation such as this can only be the work of the most divine and simultaneously diabolical mind. At the same time, I want one yet want to stay as far away as I can. I'm so conflicted! It's seven patties of delectable beef topped with lettuce, tomato, pickles, onions, and a seasame seed bun. It's only available in Japan and only for 7 days after the launch of Windows 7. Fittingly, it will cost 777 Yen, which equates to about $8.50. That price will only be for the first 30 customers to order it, however, after which the price goes up to 1450 Yen or $17. Still seems reasonable to me somehow...
I'm not sure if there is a better celebration of Windows 7 than a sandwich whose only mission is to destroy you from the inside. I just hope the Whopper doesn't have as many viruses as Windows 7 is sure to have! I'm thinking the loading time for Windows 7 will be approximately the same as it would take a human to load 7 beef patties into their gullet, so maybe the two make the perfect pair after all.
