I’m no lepidopterist, but from context I’d guess that it is indeed Nero.
A much maligned Roman emperor, Nero supposedly (but almost certainly not actually) haughtily played some instrument or the other during the Great Fire of Rome.
Hence, “burning a CD-ROM” is easily associated with him even though the story is almost certainly not true and “ROM” (read only memory) was the suffix of the CDs that COULDN’T be burned 🤷
Nero Burning Rom was a popular program for burning CDs
The best name for a piece of software I’ve ever read lol
I used Nero. Is this person I’m supposed to be aware of in the picture named Nero or something?

Honestly, this was some A-tier wordplay, especially considering that the company who made it is was German.
Is that last bit a dig at German humour?
I hear it’s not a laughing matter.
