SOFTWARE, JAPAN, SELF-ACTUALIZATION AND

Like I mentioned in my previous post, Burger King in Japan is offering for 1 week only a special Windows 7 Whopper. Today as a special treat, I am going to share with you 7 angles on the Windows 7 Whopper - fresh from the land of the rising sun.

At first inspection, this new release looks not much different from its predecessors, except a bit fresher.

However, when we stack it up for comparison we can tell this is definitely a heavy hitter.

With the seal of authenticity we are assured that this is genuine, the real deal.

Behold! Raw power and an overwhelming aura of intimidation!

In a better light things look strikingly similar to other whoppers, minus the bloat.

On first bite I can safely say that this will be no easy task to complete.

Further into the dining experience and I begin to miss the vegetable to meat ratio. The added bloat made it messy and not so easy to consume…

In all fairness I must give BK credit for accurately describing the burger in their poster advertisements. It is indeed a “super huge” burger. Alas I was unable to eat the whole thing, but my hat’s off to the tenacious small Japanese guy that devoured his along with a side of onion rings and a coke “よくできました”.

And in a most funny twist of events, my Mac, after hearing of my desire to consume the Windows 7 Whopper upon its release, gave me a most unpleasant surprise when I booted it up this weekend:

this appears on startup - a most unsettling sign that I may have just lost many important files, and much work on a personal project…
