Since this was for some time the most popular interpretation, it set up the guideline that older OS or computer-tans usually wear older fashions, and may have more antiquated mindsets. Even in canon, there are some traces of this, with [[Windows 95|95-tan]] wearing a kimono, which was common college attire for women in the Meiji era of Japan, and [[Windows 3.1|3.1-tan]] wears western-style attire of the same time frame. There is a lot of flexibility to this guideline, such as the late 70's and early 80's home computer-tans wearing different time periods of fashion, but are more old-fashioned than 3.1 and 95. There are also some exceptions, in canon, there is [[MSDOS|MS-DOS-tan's]] modern schoolgirl attire. | Since this was for some time the most popular interpretation, it set up the guideline that older OS or computer-tans usually wear older fashions, and may have more antiquated mindsets.

An intermediate between the Annex Project interpretation and real-world-based interpretations is that the great number of anachronisms, of technology and fashion are explained by stylistic choices of individual OS-tan cultures. | |||
This theory is the one used in the Annex Project (see below in "Settings Proposed in OS-tan Literature"). However, this theory and the real world theory aren't necessarily incompatible. | This theory is the one used in the Annex Project (see below in "Settings Proposed in OS-tan Literature").
