"Startup" or "Start-up" Explanation: I think you can often translate this expression with "installation", but it doesn't quite mean the same thing, and is not appropriate in this case, as shown below: (This is not quite the same context, as they are refering to nuclear reactors, but here is another term used to translate that expression): "mise en exploitation start-up, commissioning" [PDF] jltc.army.mil/jltc/fbis/fnu.pdf but here are other examples, more appropriate: "Hardware services include: Hardware installation Hardware installation and startup " http://vcmproapp02.compaq.com/ActiveAnswers/Global/en/soluti... "Harware Installation and Startup: A full range of hardware configuration, staging, and installation and startup services." www.compaq.com/services/software/ss_linux.html " Smart solutions for taking time, worry, and risk out of hardware and software deployment Save time and hassles with one-stop shopping for all your installation and startup needs. " www5.compaq.com/services/management/ms_installation.html And here is another spelling (several more examples on the Net): "CarePaq Installation and Start-up Services ensure that your system is set up the way it should be. " http://www.compaq.co.nz/carepaq/itms.asp Hope this helps. |
