Consider taking a moment to look into the difference between "emulator" and "virtual machine".
What the link refers to is an kind of Android emulator, but not the virtual machine kind of emulator.
If you are tempted to write a rebuttal in the "reply" box, answer this question first: Why are programs like xterm and urxvt called "Terminal Emulator"? What do they emulate?
Hi blueflow, I see that today you are not tired of arguing semantics.
The issue here is context. What GP means by Android Emulator refers to specific piece of software, the AVD emulator provided by Google which emulates full android device, it emulates more than just VM, it's also have skins and physcal buttons.
