Nostalgia from Microsoft: the company released a Christmas sweater with Windows XP wallpaper
Microsoft has released its traditional “ugly” Christmas sweater: this year it features the Windows XP Bliss wallpaper with a green hill, blue sky and clouds.
The corresponding message appeared in the Windows blog.
“This holiday season, Windows is bringing a touch of nostalgia to its ‘ugly’ sweaters by harkening back to the early 2000s, the days of XP. This year’s sweater features the iconic Bliss background from Windows XP, a photo of a green hill and blue sky with white clouds in Sonoma County, California,” the statement said.
It is stated that the company will support The Nature Conservancy with the proceeds from the sale of the sweater. Its initiatives are aimed at combating the climate and biodiversity crisis.
