I prefer 3 because I think it's better to have "emulator" at the start 
of the description so the user can immediately see what each app is 
doing when browsing a list of apps in his distro.

Maybe "computers" could be removed to make it shorter as in 2) as 
someone who knows what is an Atari ST certainly knows that it's a 
computer :)
