The enigmatic matriarch of all later IBM-tans. Her predecessors were [[Harvard Mark I |ASCC]] (aka Harvard Mark I) and [[SSEC|SSEC]] (Selective Sequence Electronic Calculator). She differed radically from them for being an OS, and as such can be installed on multiple sites, while her predecessors were single-installation computers with a much more limited scope of influence and life force. She never knew them though, because they died before she was created.

GMOS-tan is depicted as a woman with curly blonde hair, a blue and green frilly gown combining Victorian and Elizabethan-era fashions with an industrial vibe; the punch-card theme, collar and tie reference the industrial use of this OS. She was accompanied by assembly worker servants, and was a benevolent queen-like figure to her subjects.
