==Character Details==
==Character Details==
[[wikipedia:Windows 98| 98-tan]] is represented as a shy schoolgirl with short dark blue hair, wearing a navy blue and white school uniform with a Windows logo clip on her tie, and a gold "98" hairclip on the left side of her head.  
This character represents the first edition of [[wikipedia:Windows 98| Windows 98]]. She is represented as a shy pre-teen girl with short navy blue hair with a clip shaped like 98, the Windows logo as part of a necktie and a schoolgirl outfit with a sleeveless white blouse, blue skirt, dark-colored shoes, long socks and gloves.


The earliest representation of Windows 98 was that of a blue stick-figured box modeled after the toy Vulcan 300 from the anime and manga series "Konjiki no Gash Bell". It was a placeholder until an actual character was created, but is still depicted alongside 98-tan as a guardian to her, a friend, or a mech she can pilot.  
She is usually seen with 98SE-tan, is sometimes depicted as a futanari (hermaphrodite) and is said to fancy Homeo.


Two early designs that continue to be used alongside the 98 an 98SE-tans are a pair of stick-limbed snack-boxes with a face and version number drawn in crayon, based on the Vulcan 300 toy that appeared in the anime series Konjiki no Gash Bell!!/Zatch Bell!.


This is a holdover from the very early days before the designs of the primary OS-tans had settled. Generic stick-limbed boxes were often used as placeholders; there had been instances of small DOS and Windows 3.11 boxes before other designs gained popularity.
Both girls now make regular use of these as mechanical suits. The mech-box used by 98 is blue in colour, and likewise the 98SE mech-box has a green theme. The mechs are sometimes shown as guardians or friends to the 98-tans, otherwise the two girls can be seated inside them as pilots. The box sizes can vary, ranging from doll-like when carried by the girls to taller than an adult when they ride inside them.
