About Microsoft Windows XP

A glossy, tilted four-pane window made of four rounded rectangles arranged in a 2x2 grid and shown as if waving. Each pane uses a high-contrast gradient: top-left red/orange, top-right green, bottom-left blue and bottom-right yellow; thin black separators give the panes a beveled, three-dimensional look.

To the right of the emblem is a black wordmark reading "Windows" in a clean sans-serif, with the lowercase letters "xp" in orange positioned slightly lower and to the right of the wordmark. The overall composition feels glossy, gradient-rich and corporate, typical of early‑2000s software branding.
