Why not, indeed.

Why not too... "empêcher" looks like more user-friendly, in fact.

Well, the power button can be used to start the computer, or turn it off as
well. The latter use is not covered if using "mise en route" or
"démarrage", right?

Agreed.

Hmm, maybe "poste" or "poste de travail" can be used? Just a proposal.
Otherwise, I'll keep the english term.


Thanks for the tips!
