That's inaccurate. A "quad core" is a processor with 4 cores. A "core 2 duo" or "dual core" is 1 processor with two cores. I have a "quad core machine" in that that I have 2 processors, each with two cores, therefore running four cores simultaneously. There are quad core and dual core machines that have multiple processors, meaning 4 or 8 cores.
