It’s been a long time that we don’t have a breakthrough release in the processor world. I mean, Intel’s Hyper-Threading and AMD’s 64bit processors are both more 2 years old. Well, it looks like the next and inevitable step is to release dual core processors and both companies are working hard on it.

A dual core processor is exactly what it sounds like. It is two processor cores on one die essentially like having a dual processor system in one processor.

Sounds interesting, huh?
