** Description changed:

- VBA-M is Nintendo Advance emulator that's a little more sophisticated
- than the traditional VBA. It includes two versions, an SDL version that
- runs from the commandline, and gvbam that runs as a gtk window and uses
- cairo and/or OpenGL. At the moment, the software is probably still too
- unstable, but I'm building test packages in my PPA:
- https://launchpad.net/~ripps818/+archive/ppa
+ VBA-M is a [Super] Game Boy [Color / Advance] emulator for Windows,
+ Linux & Mac. It is an improved fork from the inactive VisualBoyAdvance
+ project, adding several features as well as maintaining an up-to-date
+ codebase. After VisualBoyAdvance became inactive in 2004, several forks
+ began to appear such as VBALink, which allowed users to emulate the
+ linking of two Gameboy devices. Eventually, VBA-M was created, which
+ merged several of the forks into one codebase. Thus, the M in VBA-M
+ stands for Merge. (wiki)
+ 
+ It includes three versions: a SDL version that runs from the command
+ line, gvbam that runs as a gtk window and uses cairo and/or OpenGL, and
+ wxvbam, a very experimental VBA-M front-end using wxWidgets.

+ Notes: runs much better than the VBA Express, and it is still in development
