The Pentium Dual Core, which we found to be an excellence choice for overclockers on a low budget, is based on the popular Core 2 architecture. In fact, the processor cores are the same, but the CPU comes with only 1 MB L2 cache instead of 2 MB or even 4 MB. In addition, some features, such as Intel's Virtualization Technology (VT) are disabled. The result is a castrated Core 2 Duo processor, using the small cache size and limited to 1.6 to 2.0 GHz clock speed at FSB800 system speed."

One has slightly better performance than the other... but theres not alot of difference in the processor, just the price.
My laptop is core 2 duo, which is quite fast and good for me, but everyone wants different features for their computer/laptop.

The Core2Duo is Intel's second generation of processors exclusive for desktops and laptops . Dual Core referrs to to a processor which has two cores in a single Silicon chip . ( Del has a quad core - meaning 4 cores in a single chip ) . The name Core2Duo came because actually it was two Intel Pentium 3 processors built in a single chip and hence Core2Duo . Therefore Core2Duo is the set of latest Dual COre processors.

they are basically the same, but the core 2 duo has increased performance. if i can remember correctly just 20% increase performance i think. its not a lot but at least there is an increase.
thats why i am buying a dual core only laptop with dedicated graphics i get a good laptop with the price halved than the core 2 duo one.
