Which is better an Intel Pentium 4 or an Intel Pentium Dual-Core?

They are the exact same technology, so one is not actually "better" than the other. Intel Pentium Dual-Cores use the same architecture as the Intel Core 2 Duo, just with a smaller L2 cache size. This makes the Dual-Core slightly slower in intensive applications than a Core 2 Duo at the same clock speed. A Pentium Dual-Core will still outperform a Core 2 Duo of a lower clock rate. Pentium D's are older Core 2's renamed to promote newer CPU's.
