Technical details
Macintosh System 3 was released along with the Mac Plus on 16 Jan, 1986 and introduced several new technologies to the Mac OS- SCSI, ADB support, Hypercard and complete support for the Hierarchical File System. System 3.0 was well-regarded, but System 3.1 was infamous for its bugginess that System 3.2 was quickly released to fix them.
System 3.3 was released the same time as System 4, and has the same Finder version (5.4), but System 3.3 was released as part of AppleShare 1.0. System 3.4 was released as part of AppleShare 2.0 in early 1988, and uses Finder 6.1.
Character details
General description
note: This character mainly represents System 3.0-3.3. There is a separate character representing System 3.4.
Macintosh System 3-tan is represented as a girl with long black hair with multicolored streaks, and wears a colorful outfit consisting of a green hat, yellow scarf, an orange dress with white sleeves, long socks with red and purple stripes, with sapphire slippers. She has a very cheerful, friendly and outgoing personality, and is a great networker.
Her favorite activities are shopping and making simple electronic gadgets. She is more efficient at work than her predecessors, but she is klutzy, has a huge fear of bugs, and is one of the least stable Mac-tans, referencing System 3.1's buggyness. Her stability improved after her faulty upgrade was fixed, but she is still worried about messing up, and is not always confident showing off her abilities.
Family and relationships
She is very fond of Mac OS9-kun who she loves in a platonic way, and is generally diplomatic towards the Windows-tans when their families have meetings, as she is eager to try and get along with everyone who is approachable. However, she has a rivalry with fellow klutz ME-tan because she knows that ME-tan likes OS9-kun as well. Ironically, System 3-tan and ME-tan have a lot in common and could be good friends if it weren't for their feuding over OS9-kun.
Of her relatives, she gets along best with Macintosh System 4-tan, Mac OS 8-tan, Mac OS 9-tan, and Mac OSX Tiger-tan.
Abilities
Other Notes
Her love of bright colors, and wearing such a colorful outfit originated due to an error on her creator's behalf, who read somewhere that System 3.0 was the first Mac OS version to support color, when it turned out it was actually System 4.0. Despite originating from an error, her character design was still kept, especially to set herself apart from her less-daring predecessors!
