I have been lurking here for a bit. I was just wondering why nobody has attempted to do a XP64-tan (not the IA-64 version).
I always figured that she would be a hybird of sorts between XP-tan and 2003-tan, since XP64 is actually the "lost" 2003 Professional. It has the same build number as 2003. There even used to be a hack in the early RC XP64 that enabled "2003 Professional" splash screen.
I think her personality would reflect the pickly nature of driver support, since it is still a PITA to find peripheral drivers for XP64. She would be even more well "endowed" then XP due to having a memory ceilling of 128GB.
Comments?
I wondered the same thing...interesting point...
Good idea...

I approve the idea! ;010
I thought there was one done already, it was a sort of cat girl version of XP. Ill have to look around for the picture..
Why would she be a catgirl?
CaptBrenden, I seem to remember seeing an XP catgirl, too. I looked through the images; Here's what I came up with:
Catgirl XP with Catgirl 98; I suspect these aren't really different characters, but the ears were added for cuteness:

there she is, the lost XP-tan! :D
I found 1 here in the gallery, but I was hoping for more since I am an XPprox64 user...

Hmm.... if there was an OS-tan for every version there was of the Operating System, XP-tans would be as diverse as Vistans. But then again, the major changes would be coming to the clothes they wear rather than the physical appearance of the '-tan itself.
Still... good images though.
Though... I think that half-naked girl there has like 12341345245 forged/edited versions. I have the very original version of that image in my computer.
Kinda' does look like a "cut-n-paste" wallpaper.... how's the original then?
Well... there is not allusion to it being an OS-tan at all... maybe it really isn't. On her hands she holds what in that image should be a bra. In fact, the hand there has a grasping posture.
So yeah... pretty much a cut 'n' paste... even though effects were given to this one in order to blend in more as an original.
Still. it makes a great wallpaper because of the black bar on top in wich i can put my icons without them interrupting the harmony of the picture itself (I can get real pedantic about that)
