Windows 7 & the 7-Layer Whopper Hit Taiwan

So, apparently despite being an burger lover, I missed the news back in October that to mark the release of Windows 7 in Taiwan, Windows and Burger King were teaming up to help the Taiwanese answer the question “Where’s the beef?” They were doing this through selling 7 patty burgers, for 7 days only, to the first 30 people at Taiwan Burger King, during the release of Windows 7 of course.

Forget your sweet tooth, feed your meat tooth

Forget your sweet tooth, feed your meat tooth

Apparently, the answer to that question is that all the beef is in this mega burger that I shudder to even write this blog about. I know that the Cattleman’s Beef Board and National Cattleman’s Beef Association have helped remind us that beef is in many ways, “What’s for dinner”, but I think this story makes clear that in this case, beef is what’s for breakfast, brunch, lunch, linner, dinner and all your daily snacks…

Thanks to the fine crew @ahamburgertoday on Twitter, I stumbled upon this story last night and my mind still can’t recover.

I get the idea behind the marketing tag-team that Windows and BK came up with here, but I just can’t comprehend why anyone would want to let their body take on this challenge. Again, this coming from a hamburger fan. I am a little bummed though that they didn’t unleash this on the United States.

I think it would do well at those BK Whopper Bars that are coming to South Beach in Miami, that we wrote about a few months back. Don’t you?

    Between me and my husband we’ve owned more MP3 players over the years than I can count, including Sansas, iRivers, iPods (classic & touch), the Ibiza Rhapsody, etc. But, the last few years I’ve settled down to one line of players. Why? Because I was happy to discover how well-designed and fun to use the underappreciated (and widely mocked) Zunes are.

  40. Congratulations on having one of the most sophisticated blogs Ive come across in some time! Its just incredible how much you can take away from something simply because of how visually beautiful it is. Youve put together a great blog space –great graphics, videos, layout. This is definitely a must-see blog!

  41. I just love this article. Have you ever thought of a career in writing? If So shoot me a Email I know some people.

  42. bådsalg says:

    Hello this is a wonderful post. I’m going to e mail this to my pals. I came on this while browsing on bing I’ll be sure to come back. thanks for sharing.

  43. It’s not that I want to duplicate your web site, but I really like the design. Could you let me know which design are you using? Or was it custom made?

  44. Hands down, Apple’s app store wins by a mile. It’s a huge selection of all sorts of apps vs a rather sad selection of a handful for Zune. Microsoft has plans, especially in the realm of games, but I’m not sure I’d want to bet on the future if this aspect is important to you. The iPod is a much better choice in that case.

  45. Zune and iPod: Most people compare the Zune to the Touch, but after seeing how slim and surprisingly small and light it is, I consider it to be a rather unique hybrid that combines qualities of both the Touch and the Nano. It’s very colorful and lovely OLED screen is slightly smaller than the touch screen, but the player itself feels quite a bit smaller and lighter. It weighs about 2/3 as much, and is noticeably smaller in width and height, while being just a hair thicker.

  46. There are definitely a whole lot of particulars like that to take into consideration. That could be a nice point to carry up. I offer the ideas above as common inspiration but clearly there are questions just like the one you deliver up the place an important factor might be working in sincere good faith. I don?t know if best practices have emerged around issues like that, however I am sure that your job is clearly recognized as a good game. Both girls and boys feel the impression of just a moment’s pleasure, for the remainder of their lives.

  47. Let me start by saying nice post. Im not sure if it has been talked about, but when using Chrome I can never get the entire site to load without refreshing many times. Could just be my computer. Thanks.

  48. Hello this is a wonderful write-up. I’m going to mail this to my buddies. I came on this while searching on google I’ll be sure to come back. thanks for sharing.
