While I'm reading the forum, I noticed several nicknames for OS-tans (for XP-tan and 98/98SE-tan). But what are the other nicknames (if there are more)?

NewYinzer

Well...let's see:
98-tan: Hacchan
98SE-tan: Secchan
Me-tan: Emui-san
Vista-chan: Vistan
XP Professional: Saseko
Mozilla Firefox: Firefox-ko
XP Home (Female): Homeko
XP Home (Male): Homeo
98 (Alternate): Yamada
I think there are a few others...

Thank you for your help! Please tell me when someone finds more nicknames!:)

Aurora Borealis

I remember some more!

Vistan is also sometimes known as Vistake
NT-tan (the woman): Maman
the NT-tan dog girl: Inu-T
The OS 10.x-tans are known by their version's codenames
OS X Server-tan: Rhapsody
Mac OS 9-tan: Sonata
Mac OS 8-tan: Veronica, Tempo-tan

panithan

Windows Server 2003: Saba-tan

That's about it for the established nicknames.  ^___^
Which means this thread is gonna come to a fairly premature end if we don't use it to establish some new nicknames.  -v-
Bare in mind that there are still many canon OS-tans out there without nicknames (e.g., 95-tan, Linux-tan) and lots of new ones who need some.  ^__^

Here's some, for example:

Commodore PET:  PETchan
Commdore C64:  PANchan
Amiga:  Miggy, Lorraine

And everytime the Captain or I speak of "The Prophet, The Goddess and The Holy Kitten", that's us describing certain OS-tans that require daily worship.  -v-

I've seen 95-tan be called Babasan or something like that ("Baba" meaning "hag"), and OSX-tan called Shian (which is the Romanization of how to spell "Cyan" in Katakana. Also Cyan was OSX's first codename. But then the cat theme went into favor with the specific releases)

C-Chan

In that case, me likey "Babasan" very much.  ^___^

...who can blame her.  -v-'
But I've got my own private army now, so she don't scare me no more. -.-

Pengi-san?  'v'

I think I've heard 2k-tan being referred to as "Nisen" (which I think is a literal way to say 2000)... doesn't really sound cute or appealing though -_-;;;

That's cause she's supposed to be cool and professional... the cuteness is just a mandatory OS-tan bonus.... Ã,¬vÃ,¬
