==History==
==History==
After suffering defeat against the [[Windows Family]] champion [[95-tan | 95-tan]] during the [[OS-tan Wars | OS Wars]], seeing the Windows-tans gain great popularity and herself getting singled out as an enemy, OS/2-tan gained a bloodthirsty vendetta against the [[Windows Family]]. Her only friend at the time, [[RISC OS | RISC OS-tan]] suggested the idea of a protest club as a means to get OS/2-tan busy and productive.  
===Background===
When the IBM-Microsoft Family broke up, most of the family was devastated. Xenix was forced to retire, PC-DOS-tan and OS/2-tan were separated from the rest of their family and ended up solely in IBM's custody where they took control of their training. OS/2-tan was trained to be a very efficient fighter, but came at a cost.
 
After suffering defeat against the [[Windows Family]] champion [[95-tan | 95-tan]] during the [[OS-tan Wars | OS Wars]], seeing the Windows-tans gain great popularity, took many of her followers, and singled out as an enemy by them, OS/2-tan gained a bloodthirsty vendetta against the [[Windows Family]]. Her only friend at the time, [[RISC OS | RISC OS-tan]] suggested the idea of a protest club as a means to get OS/2-tan busy and productive.  


RISC OS-tan had in mind petitioning to challenge the Windows Family's near-monopoly legally and peacefully. But motivated by spite, OS/2-tan misinterpreted that to mean forming a radical underground resistance group- the Anti$oft Coalition as it's known as today.

===Today===
The Anti$oft Coalition doesn't have any formal headquarters, but its meetings mainly take place in OS/2-tan's run-down office (also shared by PC-DOS-tan) which she can barely afford to maintain, after suffering budget cut after budget cut by her parent company, losing the last bit of financial support at the end of 2006. Their last hopes for funding come from what members are able to scrape together from their jobs.
