I think I’ll eat an apple instead.

Microsoft has launched a Windows 7-themed restaurant in Taipei to promote its new operating system, an official with the US firm said Monday, on the eve of Asia’s biggest IT trade show.

The restaurant previously named “100 Seafood” has been renamed “77 Concept Store” and features seven technology-themed dishes such as “Electronic Beancurd”, priced at 77 Taiwan dollars (2.40 US), the official said.

Christine Chen, an executive with Microsoft Taiwan, said the restaurant had been picked for its popularity among small and medium-sized businesses.

The concept was inspired by a Windows cafe opened in Paris last year following the launch of Windows 7, she added.

Wasn’t Ballmer at the opening chanting, “Sushi, sushi, sushi, sushi!”

    Make it authentic.

    The food is very expensive, you are given a confusing choice of food “editions”.

    You can’t complain if you don’t like the food, you have to submit the request via internet chat with some guy in India.

    And finally right when you get to enjoying a certain food on the menu, they change the recipe and sell it to you for more money.
