 @chapter Introduction
 
-QEMU is an x86 processor emulator. Its purpose is to run x86 Linux
-processes on non-x86 Linux architectures such as PowerPC. By using
-dynamic translation it achieves a reasonnable speed while being easy to
-port on new host CPUs. Its main goal is to be able to launch the
-@code{Wine} Windows API emulator (@url{http://www.winehq.org}) or
