'''The OS-Tan Wars''' refers to a series of battles between different OS-Tan Factions, mainly analogous on the market competition of the mid-1990's. However, it can be said that the OS-Tan Wars extend as far back as 1981, when a computer's operating system rivaled its hardware in importance as a benchmark. | '''The OS-Tan Wars''' refers to a series of battles between different OS-Tan Factions, mainly analogous on the market competition of the mid-1990's.

The years that followed can be considered relatively quiet, as [[AppleOS|Apple]] struggled to keep afloat against the flood of [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] PC's. The late 90's, however, showed some action return to the OS arena. With the return of Steve Jobs to [[AppleOS|Apple]], and the introduction of the iMac (now called iFruit) and [[OSX | Mac OS X]], [[AppleOS|Apple]] began to gain market share. [[Linux]], the open-source OS anomaly, also began to gain greater popularity, especially in underdeveloped and developed markets previously ignored by [[Microsoft Windows|Microsoft]]. Now [[Microsoft Windows|Microsoft]] is under heavy assault from all sides, in terms of quality, price, security and accessibility. In this sense, the future cannot be reliably predicted, and perhaps there may never be a conclusion to the OS-tan War. | The years that followed can be considered relatively quiet, as [[AppleOS|Apple]] struggled to keep afloat against the flood of [[Microsoft Windows|Windows]] PC's.
