Microsoft’s Windows team likes ninja cats and fire-breathing unicorns if this laptop sticker is anything to go by. I first heard about the existence of this laptop sticker shortly before the first Windows 10 event in September, and I’ve been trying to track it down ever since. The stickers magically appeared on Microsoft's campus, and Windows team members have snapped them up and some use them on their laptops. It’s the perfect example of a company with a bit of personality, and something you rarely see from a corporate giant like Microsoft. The software maker even has a Windows t-shirt it's handing out at Mobile World Congress this week that mocks the lack of Windows 9 (see below).
A ninja cat riding a fire-breathing unicorn is exactly why Microsoft is cool again

Excel keyboards on Android are cool, and great iOS email apps or crazy HoloLens headsets are even cooler, but this laptop sticker is the definition of cool. I mean, just look at it. It’s a ninja cat riding a fire-breathing unicorn, all while waving a Windows flag. It might be lacking a rainbow, lasers shooting from the unicorn’s eyes, and nyan cat running away from a Minecraft world, but it’s still cool. It’s official, Microsoft really is cool again.
