Microsoft is handing out around 250 'ugly' Windows XP holiday sweaters that everyone wants but no one can buy
The sweater itself evokes the signature and iconic Windows XP desktop wallpaper, called "Bliss."
It also comes in a box that looks almost identical to the one you'd get when you bought the Windows XP operating system.
Um @Windows has an ugly sweater and this is the box it came in. I want this so bad. pic.twitter.com/wP3Wavw3fF
— TJ Muehleman (@tjmule) December 12, 2019Only around 250 sweaters were made this year, and they can't be bought. The combination of nostalgia and limited availability has some people clamoring.
You may have a chance of getting a sweater if you followed and interacted with the @Windows Twitter account. Still, the @Windows Twitter account has 6.3 million followers. Only 250 people have a chance of getting a sweater. Be real with yourself now and don't get your hopes up!
For the love of God, Microsoft PLEASE I need them sweaters. PLEASE

— Timelesst🌚 (@RealTimelesst) December 12, 2019I just wanna say in the past week, I have DM'd 4 Microsoft twitter accounts and chatted with two customer support agents about getting one. I LOVE THESE SWEATERS. It brings me back to why I love tech so much. If you can make this happen for my ugly sweater contest at school :)
