==Technical details==
QNX (now known as QNX Neutrino) is a modern, highly reliable real-time, minimalist but complete UNIX-like OS that can fit on a floppy disk, supports many architectures and has many uses as an embedded OS. As an embedded OS QNX is used in many automobiles, industrial applications, medical electronics and is even used to operate nuclear power plants and powers the world's most powerful router.  
QNX (now known as QNX Neutrino) is a full-featured but minimalist real-time OS that is obscure but extremely widely used in embedded systems. It is an extremely stable system, used in automobiles, industrial applications, medical electronics, nuclear power plants, and powers the world's most powerful router.  


QNX became freeware with source code available to hobbyists when QNX Software Systems was bought out by Harmon Kardon in 2004, but the source code became restricted again when QNX was bought out by RIM (Research in Motion) in 2010. A variant of QNX is used as the OS in the Blackberry Playbook.


==Character details==
==Character details==
===General===
QNX-tan is represented as cyan-haired woman who dresses in semi-formal attire. She always wears buttoned shirts with a lab coat and tie, and the tie always has an even number of tie clips on them, since she counts only (or much prefers to) in even numbers. Her tendency for everything to be even and symmetric references the numbering scheme of QNX, which is now up to version 6.x, but there is no QNX 3 or 5. In her hair, she wears a hair clip on each side, one "QNX"-shaped, the other in the shape of the Neutrino logo.


QNX-tan is represented as cyan-haired girl with her hair partly in an updo with gold hairclips, including two in the form of a QNX and a QNX Neutrino logo and wears glasses, a lab coat, grey shirt, blue tie and blue skirt. She is very intelligent, eccentric, helpful, resourceful and incredibly efficient. She lives a busy but satisfying life as an engineer, industrialist, auto-mechanic, medic, and a self-proclaimed mad scientist.
===Family and relationships===
 
==History and background==


She is friendly to others but is especially interested in the diminutive OS-tans and often shrinks herself down to their size, reflecting that QNX is a very small OS. QNX-tan has some other eccentric habits, including counting only in even numbers as QNX is up to version 6 but there is no QNX 3 or 5.
