Nix Bellevue is a character that personifies the Xenix operating system, a Unix distribution from Microsoft first announced in 1980.

She was designed by SpacePuffer and published on the OS-tans.moe site on April 8, 2023.

What Makes Her a Personification?

  • Her name is derived from Xenix itself, and Bellevue, the city where Microsoft's headquarters used to be in early to mid 1980s.
  • Her color scheme references Xenix's software box[1], interface, and floppy disk sleeves [2].
  • Her cosmic theme is based on this Unix World magazine cover about Xenix in 1985. [3]
  • Her birthday is August 25, which is the OS' announcement date. [4]
  • Her occupation as an idol reflects Xenix's popularity in the 1980s, despite its relative obscurity nowadays.
