I agree with the other posters in that I don't believe the emulators are the way
to go.  Scid, Xboard, Knights, Jose, et al do a great job and most will hook in
with the top engines, Crafty, Yace, Faile, etc. (not in any order and certainly
not all inclusive).  Also, on Linux, Swiss Pairing can be done with Vega.
