not referring entirely to it:

We could use the greek mythology for names (including former mandriva
control center and so on), this would bring a little of "culture" in our
bench lab, and would probably be appreciated by all, see:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_mythology

So instead of the cauldron, I would go for Hephaestus:

" He was the god of technology <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Technology>,
blacksmiths <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blacksmith>,
craftsmen<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Craft>,
artisans <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Artisan>,
sculptors<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sculpture>,
metals <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metal>,
metallurgy<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallurgy>,
fire <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fire_%28classical_element%29> and
volcanoes <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Volcano>"

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hephaestus

WDYT?
