Core 2 duo is just a series of cpus. There are also core duos which are not as good. Basically core 2 duos are Intel's dual core cpus that introduced a new architecture. They differ from Pentium D (dual core Pentium 4) in that they operate at lower frequencies but do more work. A core 2 duo at 1.6Ghz is faster than an older Pentium 4 operating at 3.0Ghz. The core 2 duos are simply amazing because they overclock like crazy. I've been running mine overclocked (twice stock speed) 24/7 for two years using a $25 aftermarket fan/heatsink and have done no damage.
Core 2 is the name of the processor series, duo means that it's a dual core processor. There's also Core 2 Quad and Core 2 Solo.
Yes, it's quad-pumped.
