Microsoft’s efforts to hawk Windows to otaku using the power of moe look to have reached their zenith with Windows 7′s Madobe Nanami, and quite possibly their nadir with the pair of generic ‘blobs trotted out to support sales of Windows 8, apparently the most loathed Windows OS since Vista.

OS-tan Gallery

I came across a very nice collection of OS-tan images here and here, the best I’ve seen, and I’ve taken the liberty of mirroring the most interesting below (some are wallpaper sized). The kind treatment given to Windows 95 seems a little inexplicable now, but I suppose that is the effect of time. I certainly approve of the Windows 2000 adulation though – as fine a Windows OS as could be, for its time. Vista makes me laugh, but then so does the OS.

If you’re not familiar with OS-tan, these are attempts to anthropomorphise the features of various operating systems (mostly Windows) using anime styled characters; some of them are, in my opinion, very witty, and the vast majority are quite cute or sexy.
