* In Creator/SergeyLukyanenko's ''Literature/LabyrinthOfReflections'', the protagonist uses Windows Home as his computer OS. He keeps the original avatar of the OS, an attractive woman. While in {{Cyberspace}}, he is running away from a mob and runs into a virtual brothel. He then browses through the catalog and is stunned to find a virtual prostitute that looks exactly the same as his avatar. After meeting her, he starts developing feelings for her, which she cautions him against, as she can be a fat guy for all he knows. At the end of the novel, they agree to meet in the real world, and it turns out that this is what she really looks like.
