Windows 7 Whopper


Getting an early start on weekend amusements, meat eaters and PC users rejoice: Microsoft teams up with Burger King to have it your way!

From an October 22 post on a Computer World blog dubbed, Microsoft's Windows 7 'Whopper' campaign: The worst promotion ever?

"Microsoft is celebrating the release of Windows 7 in Japan with a Burger King promotion for the Windows 7 Whopper: Seven patties stacked on top of one another in one sandwich. Given that Microsoft has been criticized for releasing top-heavy, bloated operating systems, this could be one of its worst promotional ideas ever."

Mac Daily News
cleverly, viciously, self-servingly and succinctly put it:
"One bloated puke-inducing heart attack-in-a-box deserves another."
