NT-tan

CANON

NT-tan personifies the Windows NT line (the 3.x/4.0 era before 2000/XP ate the name). She is often drawn older than the 9x girls: gray or silver hair, more severe uniform, mother or older-sister to 2K and XP.

Inu-T is a separate dog-eared reading of NT Workstation (inu ≈ NT). Do not merge her with NT-tan. Setsuaki is credited on Moeverse for NT Maman (2003). OSC documents Deja Vu ArtWorks claiming the design; that claim is disputed. Stamp the look CANON, the property DISPUTED. See Controversies.
