	AMIX-tan's assignments were to build a following in the education market, and to compete against the other Unix-tans that were in the workstation market. Amiga-tan's capabilities were more versatile, but overlapped with AMIX-tan's in the education market, which caused her and AMIX-tan to be competitors to each other, with Amiga-tan often winning by gaining more of a following. Amiga-tan's success undercut AMIX-tan's ability to keep her following.

AMIX-tan did not often spend a lot of time with them because she had different missions than them, competing in the education market and against the DEC and Unix workstations instead of the contemporary home computers. Of the Commodore-tans, she got along with PET-tan the best, and PET-tan entrusted her to be Amiga-tan's mentor.

	The relationship they had was complicated. Their personalities clashed, and AMIX-tan was frustrated over Amiga-tan not consistently following the Commodore Fleet protocol. Amiga-tan remained friendly and wanted to be her friend. AMIX-tan wanted to accept this friendship, but she also felt some resentment over Amiga-tan taking away some of her following, even if it was unintentional.
