Note, dual-core is different from dual CPU. On Jun. 13, 2005 PT Wired magazine explained a dual-core CPU as the following in a article titled "The New Chips on the Block" "A dual-core processor differs from a single-core chip in that it has two physical computer processing unit, or CPU, cores on a single die."
