==Character details==
===General description===
'''Me-tan''' is the more cutesy personification of the much maligned and infamously unreliable Windows Me Operating System and was the first OS-tan created. She is usually known as Me-tan, but is often called Emui-san. She was created by the one now called ME-aki.

ME-tan's appearance rarely varies and is instantly recognizable. She has green hair in long braided pigtails and wears a maid outfit with an exclamation mark badge on the front modeled after the Windows error icon. She frequently carries a scallion as a weapon (sometimes a crowbar instead) to defend herself from malware attacks, this being a pun on a Japanese anti-virus software called NeGIs (Negi is Japanese for Scallion).

She is a hard worker and always wants to help her master (Toshiaki), and within the family, but predictably fails at everything she tries to do, often literally crashing and irritating her sisters. When she is not frozen or out of control, she tends to do things showing a lack of common sense or knowledge. But even after failure after failure, she still remains cheerful, friendly and optimistic.

In spite of, or perhaps due to, her pitiful plight, the clumsy ME-tan is one of the most beloved OS girls.

Her male counterpart, ME-kun is more reliable and sensible than his sister, being enrolled in some form of school or college, and often called upon to read help manuals by his brothers and sisters. He is also occasionally known to crack a perverted joke or two with his brothers, especially 2k-kun and XP Pro-kun, mimicing the trio of ME-tan, 2k-tan, and XP-tan.
