Not sure if everyone agrees but fwiw,

Latest virtual machines used in Squeak v3 and newer versions

Might be better stated as

Spur, Cog, Stack and Squeak v3 virtual machines.

The suggestion is because not everyone knows what a V3 virtual machine is.
IMO the purpose of this page is to get people to the latest Spur VM and
therefore it should be the first thing mentioned.

We might [also | instead] add a small description at the bottom

* "v3" is the original object representation for Squeak as described in the
<a href='http://ftp.squeak.org/docs/OOPSLA.Squeak.html'>back-to-the-future</a>
paper

All the best,

Ron
