Pentium D=2 cores 1 processor
Core Duo = 2 cores 1 processor
Core2 Duo = 2 cores 1 processor
Core2 Quad = 4 cores 1 processor
They are all basically the same thing, but different generations.

It starts getting complicated when you need to explain 65nm v 90nm (intel v amd) or the reason that amd's have a 2000mhz fsb to intels 1333fsb (its just exactly the same except that amd count front and both sides on their fsb and intel count front and 1 side)

All you need to know is that at the moment Intel Core 2 processors are faster, cheaper & more energy efficient than the competition and are capable of silly overclocks

AMD don`t have a front side bus, they use The hypertransport Link to connect to the Northbridge. Which is only used to pass data to any thing but memory.

Dual core - generic description of 2 cores on a single die BUT in Intel's case usually to denote that the processors are older technology and thus seperate.

Current AMDs yes not the older generation
On all other processors – including AMD processors not based on AMD64 architecture, like the original Athlon, Athlon XP and Sempron socket 462 processors – the CPU has only one external bus, also known as front side bus (FSB).

Nope they have a mempory controller on board which connects directly to the memory. And the Hypertransport Link connects to the northbridge. No FSB at all.
