i thought cows were aliens, since they're always getting beamed up to UFOs. :0

They've being cownapped! Cownapped I tell you, to be used in the interstellar wars (hence WMD)

Secchan's personality is a complex thing....you can thank japanese canon for that. :\

Oh I do... I resemble... erm... resent that but I Do...

um, there are ipod-tans. and i think there's an ipad-tan. and camera-tans. so if there's a device, there's likely a -tan of it. OS-tan is a VERY broad term, as i said. ^^;;

Again, those'd be gadget-tans, but I won't argue a bout Lost causes and Be like BSD-tan

Nice meeting you Alfonso, I hope you enjoy OSC.

And Choco is correct, if you can imagine it, there's probably been a -tan made for it. OS-tans started off as quite a narrow classification (modern operating systems), but we've branched out into all sorts of OSes, computer hardwares, software, network systems, etc, from just about every era in time.  ^.^

i feel i should back bells (and myself) up by saying that the ipod contains an OS not seen in any other format. so yes, it IS an OS-tan.

Oh I'm enjoying it

there you got me... but it's more a firmware

if you feel like debating this, i'd say it's one for the theory thread here. but i'll let you know that you'd be alone in your findings, especially when there are already pictures of the ipod-tans in the gallery, sometimes hanging out with the OSXes. :\

Again, I won't fight a battle I can't really win... would be only a waste of time and resources on my part...  'sides it may be as well than they are more hardware-tans

I didn't get to welcome you here earlier so here is a late welcome to OS-tan collections. I'm still kinda new here too so... 's all good.

[alfonso_rd_30]

-no problemo... the moore the merrier

Hi everyone, new user here.

[NejinOniwa]

Well that was...brief.

Care to elaborate?

[ettanb]

Well, I am an archlinux user and I just love the tan design for that distribution. I also use it for starting the OS in the refind configuration.
When I was writing the refind configuration I was kinda surprised that there is not tan for GRUB. But later I noticed GRUB has its own logo, so I used it.

I general I always liked the tans because it is much easier to play with characters instead that with symbols like the windows flag.

[Nichi]

Welcome aboard. Hope you stick around ^^

[LeaflameSD]

Welcome to the OS-tan Collections.

[Bella]

Welcome aboard, fellow *nix user!  Interestingly enough, I've recently become interested in Arch Linux-tan myself, I'd really like to draw or write something about her and GNU/HURD-tan.

Also, I didn't know about the GRUB mascot - nice find.

I'm fond of OS-tans for the same reason as you, it just seems the natural extension of my interest in computers and love of personifying objects.

[Chocofreak13]

yay, yay, new people! ^^

i'm always up for finding new -tans!! kudos to you for finding it, now just to make it cute. xD

stick around ettan! there's lots more in store. ^^
