This is the most confusing question looming around and bewildering most of the people. Check out the basic difference between them.
1. Dual core is NOT a Processor. Its only processing technology.
2. Core2duo is THE processor. Pentium D, Core Duo, Core2Duo, Athlon X2 are other processors built with Dual Core technology.
So when you go for a processor, ask for a Coreduo or Core2duo NOT for a Dualcore processor. However Core2Duo is the advanced one than CoreDuo with 4MB Cache where as Coreduo has 2MB Cache.
