 IBM PC compatible - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
IBM PC compatible refers to a class of computers which make up the vast majority of smaller computers (microcomputers) on the market today.
Although the IBM PC was designed for expandability, the designers could not anticipate the hardware developments of the '80s.
The origins of this platform came with the decision by IBM in 1980 to market a personal computer as quickly as possible in response to Apple Computer's rapid success in the burgeoning market for low-cost single-user computers — what later came to be known as the "personal computer market".

 Acorn Gaming: Emulation - IBM PC compatible
Not strictly an emulator at all, this is the (complex, clever) frontend software which allows the PC card that can be fitted to Risc PC computers to be run in a window on RISC OS - or in fact, at all.
It does do quite a lot of emulation, however, since the hardware the PC expects isn't actually present and so this program has to pretend.
A later major improvement brought version 3, which is still available and supports RISC OS 4 and Kinetic machines.
