Also Known As: Primos, PRIMOS, Multics-in-a-shoebox
Drawn By: Bella
OS Personified: PR1MOS
OS Developer: Prime Computer
First Released: Late 1970s
Latest Stable Release: Unknown; early 1990s

Developed in the 70s, and peeking at popularity in the mid 80s, PR1MOS was minicomputer OS. PR1MOS shows a strong Multics influence; several former Multicians worked at Prime Computer, and the founder of Prime referred to PR1MOS as Multics-in-a-shoebox. While a contender as a mainline minicomputer operating system, PR1MOS lost favor to PCs in the early 90s.

PR1MOS-tan is shown as a somewhat mature woman, with short dark hair and green eyes.
