As Microsoft unveils its new Windows 7 platform, other companies are jumping on the promotional bandwagon.

One such company is Burger King. In Japan, hungry fast food fans can feast upon the towering 7-patty whopper. This staggering sandwhich is available only until October 28th.

Each day, the first 30 ambitious eaters can snag the whopping Whopper for 777 yen, or about $8.49. Subsequent diners can bag the beastly burger for 1450 yen, or about $15.86.

So, what are the measurements of this monstrous meal? This "cardiac special" stacks in at 13 cm, or just over 5 inches. What's more, this supersized snack tips the scales at almost 2 pounds. 

As with anything fried, fans of the Windows 7 Whopper should exercise caution and limitation. Fast food is dripping with saturated fat, laced with calories and crammed with heart-stopping cholesterol. So go ahead and have a bite . . . or seven. But don't go overboard, and live well into your 70s!
