Burger King has released a gut-busting seven-patty Whopper to mark the release of Windows 7.

In what may be the most bizarre cross-promotional campaign ever, Microsoft linked up with the fast-food chain to create the 'Windows 7 Whopper.'

The fatty burger behemoth contains more than 2500 calories, is 5.1 inches tall and costs just 777 yen - about £5.

It went on sale in outlets in Japan today to coincide with the release of the new operating system.

'I need to shower after holding it in my hands,' said one customer, Kyoko Yamamoto, after merely trying to get a grip on the sandwich.

'There is no way you could eat that.'

The grease factor aside, computer users were also mystified by the idea of using a gigantic fast food burger to promote new computer software.
