The enigmatic matriarch of all later IBM-tans. Her predecessors were ASCC (aka Harvard Mark I) and SSEC (Selective Sequence Electronic Calculator). She differed radically from them for being an OS, and as such can be installed on multiple sites, while her predecessors were single-installation computers with a much more limited scope of influence and life force. She never knew them though, because they died before she was created. | The enigmatic matriarch of all later IBM-tans.

She did not have much of a family growing up since her older sisters died, she was happy to have daughters and they were her immediate family: [[IBSYS|IBSYS-tan]], [[UMES|UMES-tan]] and [[BESYS|BESYS-tan]]. She died in the mid 1960's. Much of what was known of her personality and appearance had been lost to time to nearly all the IBM-tans, but is still revered by them, and the many mainframe-tans she influenced. | |||
