Both the Lisa and the Mac were made for businesses, but the Mac initially sold for 1/4 the cost of the Lisa, and was the first commercially-successful OS with a GUI. | ||

Although she tends to be childish, is scatterbrained, and has a poor attention span, she means well and still strives to be a mother and leader figure to the rest of the [[House of Mac | Mac-tans]], even though nearly all of them see her as a little sister-figure who needs to be cared for. Still, they appreciate her efforts. | Although she tends to be childish, is scatterbrained, and has a poor attention span, she means well and still strives to be a mother and leader figure to the rest of the [[House of Mac | Mac-tans]], even though nearly all of them see her as a little sister-figure who needs to be cared for.

In meetings between the Mac and Windows families, she tries to be civil and leader-like, but is at times haunted by the OS Wars of the past, and may act out aggressively in perceived self-defense. | ====Family meetings==== | ||
In meetings between the Mac and Windows families, if she's at the Mac House, she tries to be civil and leader-like, but is at times haunted by the OS Wars of the past, and may act out aggressively in perceived self-defense. | |||
She still considers most of the DOS-tans to be rivals, especially [[PCDOS|PC-DOS-tan]], who acknowledges the rivalry to this day. Their rivalries, mutual or one-sided, are still civil though, just like in the pre-OS Wars days. She doesn't see [[QDOS|QDOS-tan]] as a rival though, and sees her as a friend and innocent little sister figure to her. | ====DOS-tans==== | ||
Of her contemporaries, her main rivals were MS-DOS-tan and PC-DOS-tan, as they had the largest marketshare and were direct competitors to the Macintosh. She largely ignored the home computer-tans, such as the Atari and Commodore-tans, since the Macintosh was well out of the home computer price range. | |||
She still considers most of the DOS-tans to be rivals, especially [[PCDOS|PC-DOS-tan]], who acknowledges the rivalry to this day; System 1-tan likes to poke fun at PC-DOS-tan for being so uptight. Their rivalries, mutual or one-sided, are still reasonably civil though, just like in the pre-OS Wars days. She doesn't see [[QDOS|QDOS-tan]] as a rival though, and sees her as a friend and innocent little sister figure to her. | |||
