old-tan?

[Red-Machine]

Well, I see that there are other microcomputers such as Spectrum-tan, C64-tan, CoCo-tan, etc.

BUT

There is no Dragon-tan.  The Dragon 32/64 was a Tandy CoCo clone made in Wales, UK from 1983-1986.  I have just come into posession of one and feel she should be added to the ranks of the OS-tans.  I think I'll have a conflab with the Dragon User Group to see what they feel she should look like and what her personality would be.

the -tan i was working on was acorn-tan, an english computer used in the 80's-90's i believe

she also had a squirrel named arthur, one of Acorn's models.

Is that generic Acorn-tan?  Like Amiga-tan?  Also, Arthur wasn't a computer; it was Acorn's self-made OS that they used up until 1988.

Acorn had several models, ranging from the BBC-backed Micro to the Archimedes.  They were the last British computer company to fold, I believe.  Circa 1996/7.

Rule Britannia, and all that!

[NejinOniwa]

ALL HAIL BRITANNIA why don't you have a Zero avi, for all that? .w.

[Red-Machine]

Apologies for being dumb, but what is Zero?  A google search for "zero anime britain" turned up some stuff that I don't think is related.

[NejinOniwa]

I meant Lelouch. Sorry.

[Red-Machine]

Oh, Code Geass.  I watched a bit of that then gave up on it.  I didn't think it portrayed us in a very good light.

[Chocofreak13]

ye, i meant generic acorn. i had forgotten just what arthur was, sorry. ^^;

but yes, she currently has no -tan. she is NEKKID. since you are so britian-proud, maybe you could help the yank with the design? :3

[Red-Machine]

Absolutement!  Acorn-tan should be a very proud girl, and keen on education and television as Acorn's most succesful computer was marketed by the BBC (our biggest television company) and used primarily in schools.  The RISC PC that they developed later (later called the Archimedes) was also used in schools, and was extremely powerful, using the most successful processor ever designed (the ARM).

Also, she should have a pet owl.  An owl was used as the BBC Micro's logo and the Archimedes was named after Merlin's pet owl!
