Intel Core Duo

What is the difference between Intel Core 2 Duo and Core Duo processors? They both say they have 2 cores?
What is the difference between Intel Core 2 Duo and Core Duo processors? They both say they have 2 cores?
let me try simplify it for you
indeed bad naming / nomenclature that from intel
and yes, both have 2 cores
core duo > t2x00 / t2x50, 32 bit processors
l2 cache - 2 mb., fsb - 533 / 667 mhz
core 2 duo > t5xx0 / t7xx0, 64 bit processors
l2 cache - 2 mb / 4 mb., fsb - 533 / 667 / 800 mhz
also the latest generation core 2 duo, featuring the 45 nanometer penryn line
t8xx0 > 3 mb l2 cache, 800 mhz fsb
t9xx0 > 6 mb l2 cache, 800 mhz fsb
in effect the 'core duo' was the earlier version of the dual core processor, following the retirement of the pentium m processor
the lowly celeron m continued production however
presently i see little activity on the 'core duo' front and i believe intel have halted production, though the market may still carry stocks ... not officially retired though
'core 2 duo' is where they stepped up the gas, with a vastly improved processor architecture over the 'core duo'., and developments continue with new processors being lauched from time to time
in between, intel slipped in another family > intel pentium dual core, with their own numbering t2060, t2080, t2130 ...
so i believe that intel ultimately plans to retain 2 lines
pentium dual core for the lower end &
'core 2 duo' for the upper end
retiring the celeron m & 'core duo' .... someway down the line
just my reading that & not officially from intel
