Technical details
The Memory Test Computer is a system built to test the core memory of the Whirlwind computer. In some ways it resembled Whirlwind, and was thought to be used in SAGE's early development by some accounts.
Character details
General
Memory Test Computer-tan (MTC-tan) was Whirlwind's nurse and assistant. Since MTC influenced the design of the TX-0 and TX-2 computers, and was used in developing SAGE, she could be considered a second mother to PDP-1 and SAGE.
Appearance-wise, she has dark blonde or light brown hair of shoulder length, and flipped at the ends. Her bangs are curled back, and resemble a popular women's hairstyle of the 40's. She wears a old-timey nurse outfit with a blue dress, white pinafore and hat. Her eyes are a golden color, answering the question where SAGE got her blue and gold eyes from. She is shorter than Whirlwind, but has similar proportions, since MTC has the same amount of memory and same processing speed as Whirlwind.
She is loyal, compassionate, and intelligent, but wasn't able to use her intelligence to her fullest potential; the MTC did not have any software or hardware support.
