Rohdekill Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 So you slap a couple of "7"'s on the wall and paste an MS logo up and that makes it a theme'd restaurant? What part of the Windows 7 theme does that ugly table cloth play? what a joke.

Sethos Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 They should do an Apple themed restaurant; two dishes to choose from, you'd be force fed throughout the meal and it would cost you in excess of a thousand dollars.

Arguably, only in China does it actually work.

+jamesyfx Subscriber² Posted May 19, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted May 19, 2010 It's.. an Operating System. Why the hell would anyone eat at a restaurant themed after an OS? >.>; People are weird.

+Dick Montage Subscriber² Posted May 19, 2010 Subscriber² Share Posted May 19, 2010 It's not a themed restaurant. It's basically a point-of-sale cross-promotion for a limited time. Way to over-report a story.

Pharos Posted May 19, 2010 Share Posted May 19, 2010 It certainly sounds like a moronic idea at first.. But look at the amount of free publicity this is getting. I bet it will increase their revenue, regardless of how ridiculous it looks. And that's pretty much what they're aiming for.
