Hey everyone, Well, to start i've been poor for quite some time. And since I finally got a job, my first paycheck goes to a new computer ;)

Now, i've never gotten to play with any of these 'dual core' processors (hell, I haven't even gotten to play with a 64bit either for that matter short of compiling from a terminal ;)

So heres my question, I think I read somewhere it was possible to run a virtual environment (in say vmware) on the other core? I think my impressions where dual cores were like having 2 processors on the same chip, so is this possible? Or am I just dreaming?
