用於计算机软件雏型版试用,Beta 测试用的计算机(或系统)
Fron FOLDOC: "crash-and-burn machine" is reported for a computer used exclusively for alpha or beta testing, or reproducing bugs (i.e. not for development). The implication is that it wouldn't be such a disaster if that machine crashed, since only the testers would be inconvenienced.
