One of the less common OS-tan designs, Apple II-tan personifies the Apple I, II, and III computers. Due to the similarities in OS and hardware, Apple II-tan lobs them all together into one character. However, she primarily personfies the Apple II, the first popular microcomputer manufactured by Apple. Its direct ancestor was the Apple I, a limited production circuit board computer for electronics hobbyists which pioneered many features that made the Apple II a commercial success.
In her drawings, Mac-tan appears in the clothes of an Edo era Japanese farmer, complete with rake and straw hat with the early Mac logo. She wears a wooden pendant around her neck with the original Mac logo, a nod to the Apple I's wooden construction. Her sister is Apple Lisa-tan, whose fancier dress references Steve Jobs' favoring of the Lisa over the Apple II.
