Dual Core is a processor with two cores, Intels branding for this is called Core2Duo.
Some programs are only able to use one core, however these are becoming rarer, all operating systems support two cores, so they can spread the load across the two cores. If you for example have 2 programs open then they can both run at full speed.
Having a dual core system will make things feel much faster than single core.
