Heh, this was not on my mind when I thought of the wording, but whatever floats people's boats.... Your point about translation is excellent. For non-English speakers, the meaning of "Fire it up" as intended is similar to "start the engines," and in this case the engine is a nuclear furnace of software freedom! :-) So something that captures that aspect is probably the right way to go for translation. -- Paul W.
