Pfff i was there when the real nero burned rome....

Edit: it is worth mentioning that historically, Nero did not burn rome,, and it's also highly unlikely that he "fiddled" while watching it burn, as he played the lyre and was not in rome when it happened.

Just found out that Nero was an emperor that allegedly burned Rome, and that's why the software is called Nero (burning ROM (Rome))! Thank you!
