Technical details
LINC (Laboratory INstrument Computer) is one of DEC's earliest computers, and is a partial descendant of MIT's Whirlwind through the TX-2's use to develop LINCTape. LINCTape is a very reliable system, but was needed for its system to operate, and is hard to type on. Several DEC systems are descended from LINC: PDP-4, PDP-5, LINC-8, PDP-11 and PDP-12. LINC's design is entirely in the Public Domain.
Character details
General
LINC-tan has long, braided black hair decorated with green ribbons, has blue eyes, usually wears black dresses with a lab coat. In her recent years, she also wears a stab vest reflecting the strength and reliability of LINCTape, which can have holes punched in it by a paper tape puncher without any problems. She is something of a witch, possessing strange powers over paper.
Very academic and research-oriented; felt out of place at the militaristic DEC Military. Intelligent with a good memory and recall, but always needs her planner with her to do anything. Friendly and sociable but hard to communicate with, she prefers to talk to one person at a time. Her experiences have also given her psychology skills and up until DEC's demise, she worked as a psychologist.
She is the biological mother of the DEC hardware and OS-tans that use the LINCTape system, she is married to PDP-8-tan, and is the godmother of the PDP-8 OS-tans (OS/8, TSS/8 and RSTS).
