Some anonymous [[Futaba]] artists introduced a setting for its comic strip where a [[Toshiaki]] owns a PC. Then anonymous artists, all of a sudden included a group of women in which they personify every operating system the ''Toshiaki'' owns, in which also they didn't gave an explanation on how were they formed or did appeared or born in the setting. These group of women are the [[List of OS-tans|OS-Tans]]. The first batch of OS-tans created are all personifying a series of Windows OS, which means they are portrayed as sisters from each other. The series of Windows OS that was personified includes [[Windows_3.1|3.1]], [[NT-tan|NT]], [[95-tan|95]], [[CE-tan|CE]], [[InuT-tan|NT Workstation]], [[98-tan_and_98SE-tan|98  98SE]], [[Me-tan|ME]], [[2k-tan|2000]], [[XP_Family|XP]] and [[2003_Server|Server 2003]]. The OS-tans obviously considers the ''Toshiaki'' their master and lives with him. They almost have the traits of the operating system they respectively represent. Not only do they help their master on maintaining things that are technically related to computers, but they also do his chores and obligations around the house. That setting on those comic strips became temporary at first, until all Futaba artists accepted it and followed popularly.

Other than the Windows sisters, other operating system such as [[MacOS]], [[Linux]], and [[Lindows|Linspire]] were also given a personification and commonly appeared with the Windows sisters at that time. These were soon followed by the personifications of[[OS9|MacOS9]] and the eventual conversion of the generalized MacOS to be the personification of the entire Mac OSX line. (''not to be confused with +Nijiura+ concept of OSX catgirls, [http://ostan-collections.net/wiki/Introduction#.2BNijiura.2B See Below]''). While not included initially, a personification of [[Vistan|Vista]] has been drawn up as well.

Futaba artist also started to draw male counterparts known as the [[OS-kuns]] (OS君), though like their female counterparts, some non-OS characters exist for programs and hardware. [[Norton Antivirus]], for example, is usually portrayed as a creepy looking, possibly lecherous old doctor.
