Hi all! I just bought a new laptop and I know it's not the best one ot there, but thats all I could afford at the moment. My new laptop is a Acer Aspire 5610-4534 with Intel Core Duo 1.73GHz 1GB DDR2 Ram 160GB HDD Win Vista Home Premium. What's the difference between Core 2 Duo & Core Duo? Are the both duel processors?

Thanks for your time

I too am looking into getting a new laptop and coincidentally was investigating the difference between the Core Duo and the Core 2 Duo. I found the following links:

AnandTech.com - Mobile CPU Wars: Core 2 Duo vs. Core Duo

Notebookcheck.com - Review Core Duo vs. Core 2 Duo

Intel Core and Intel Core 2 at Wikipedia.org.

From the reviews there is a slight performance increase, but the Core Duo isn't bad at all. The Core Duo line are dual-core CPUs just like the Core 2 Duo line (Core Solo is single-core), but only Core 2 Duo supports both 32-bit and 64-bit implementation; Core Duo does not support 64-bit.
