Macintosh System 6 introduced a few new features, including the predecessor to the Application Menu but its claim to fame is being regarded as the fastest and one of the most stable of the Classic Mac OSes.
Mac System 6-tan is represented as a very tall, battle-scarred cyborg girl with medium-length black hair, long asymmetrical bangs, and is heterochromic; with a silver right eye and red left eye and wears black boots, skirt, fingerless gloves and leather jacket with white polka dot trim. The usage of polka dots is reference to that System 6 was the last Mac OS to have extensive usage of polka dots in the GUI. Her tough attitude, the fact that she's a cyborg and dresses like a biker are rather obvious references to System 6.0.8's codename of Terminator. Her nickname of Antares and frequent usage of the phrase big deal are references to two other codenames (of 6.0.4 and 6.0.5 specifically and respectively). She is also the tallest of the Mac-tans, with a height of 185 cm [6'1].
She is fast, extremely strong (rivaling A/UX-tan in strength), remarkably stable and usually nonchalant but is scatterbrained and not good at multitasking, which seems to bring out the worst in her when she tries. She is very tough, hates perversion and is willing to go to some radical lengths to stop it. Despite her toughness, she is very kind and loyal at heart, and cares for her family a lot which is why she volunteered to be defender of the Mac House against perversion and Mac virus-tans. She is battle-scarred from a fight against her sworn enemy ANTI-tan although she did win that fight. Her other serious rival is WDEF-tan, a virus-tan who has been out to get and annoy Mac System 6-tan for almost 20 years now but to no avail anymore.
Mac System 6-tan is very close friends with Mac System 5-tan, has a friendly but intense rivalry with A/UX-tan and used to be good friends with AOL-tan before AOL-tan got corrupted by megalomania.
