+VICE is the one and only Versatile Commodore Emulator. It provides
+emulation of the Commodore 64, 128, VIC20 and PET 8-bit computers
+within a single package. The emulators run as separate programs, but
+have the same user interface, share the same settings and support the
+same file formats.
+
+All the emulators provide an accurate 6502/6510 emulator, with
+emulation of all the opcodes (both documented and undocumented ones)
+and accurate timing. Unlike other emulators, VICE aims to be cycle
+accurate; it tries to emulate chip timings as precisely as possible
+and does so efficiently.
+
+Please do not expect the VIC20, C128 and PET emulators to be as good
+as the C64 one, as they are still under construction.
+
+The current version emulates the C64, the C128, the VIC20, the CBM-II
+line (B128, B256), and all the PET models.
