This and those stupid "host-your-own" Windows 7 launch parties are the best that Ballmer and Co. can come up with?
Yay, let's celebrate the next Vista Service Pack by eating a Whopper with 7 patties or show off your newly installed Windows 7 machine to your party guests (must be an lame party to be invited to). How fun.

This actually is a stroke of marketing brilliance! Think about, you'll consume one of these, feel slightly bloated, and then your heart will have a BSOD and crash. It'll be the complete Windows experience.

More info:
"For the first 30 people to order, this monster will cost only 777 yen. For everyone else after that, the cost goes up to 1,450 yen ($15.89).
It weighs about 1.7 pounds, and the caloric intake on this is more than you should probably eat in a day, at 2,120 calories."

It's just a marketing gimmick for which Japan is pretty famous for. It will only be available for 7 days.

Interesting, anyone know how long this promotion is for?
I would get this just for kicks if it was available in Canada :cheesygri:cheesygri
