If you're not in Japan to attempt to eat the Windows 7 Whopper at Burger King, Eating The Road has you covered with their humorous guide to hacking and unlocking the burger. First, they point out what's wrong with the burger:

* It is region locked and only available in Japan
* It has an Enterprise price point of $17 (¥1,450)
* Has limited functionality (no cheese)

Solution: Get four double cheeseburgers from Burger King (only $1 each with their current promotion), do a bit of patty and bun rearranging, and voilà: a sort of Windows 7 Burger! (The hacking is more about the process than the final product.)
