Windows 1.0-tan was born in the mid-80s into the old [[Microsoft-IBM_Family | MS-IBM family]], attended to by the family caretaker [[Xenix | Xenix-tan]] and her older siblings [[MS-DOS | MS-DOS-tan]] & [[PC-DOS | PC-DOS-tan]]. <ref>[https://www.ostan-collections.net/forum/index.php/topic,299.msg9745.html#msg9745 "OS-tan OVA"]</ref> The baby of the family,<ref>[https://www.deviantart.com/bellacielo/art/Xenix-and-DOS-tan-Collab-FINAL-149085222 Xenix and DOS twins picture, featuring a young 1.0-tan]</ref> 1.0-tan led a sheltered life of luxury and wanted for little. | |||
In time she was joined by a younger step-sister, [[OS/2 | OS/2-tan]] and a daughter, [[Windows 2.0 | 2.0-tan]], both of whom she was particularly close to and affectionate with. | |||
At the start of the 90s, relations soured between the two halves of the family, strained to its breaking point inadvertently by [[Windows 3.1 | 3.1-tan]], who became favored over OS/2-tan. In the subsequent breakup, 1.0-tan tried to keep herself from being separated from OS/2-tan, but the two were forced apart, 1.0-tan and 2.0-tan being banished altogether while the MS and IBM sides of the family retreated to their own separate factions.<ref>[https://www.ostan-collections.net/forum/index.php/topic,460.msg35993.html#msg35993 "OS-tan families"]</ref> | |||
Windows 1.0-tan and her daughter began living as itinerant wanderers, a situation sharpened by the OS Wars and Unix Wars of the early 90s.<ref>[https://www.deviantart.com/bellacielo/art/Linux-tan-comic-page-30-104870902 Linux-tan comic, page 30]</ref> | |||
The two eventually made acquaintance of [[Amiga | Amiga-tan]], [[Apple II | Apple II-tan]] and others, forming the [[Binteeji Renmei]] as a sanctuary for vintage OS-tans in the process.<ref>[https://www.ostan-collections.net/forum/index.php/topic,460.msg35993.html#msg35993 "Mac Party Redux!"]</ref> | |||
Although 1.0-tan stays up to date on happenings within the Windows family, few if any modern Windows-tans are aware of her existence. | |||
