what good would dual processors do? You need mutli-threaded apps to make use of it, otherwise it actually amounts to 2-5% SLOWER processing, since it has to go through the extra step of deciding which processor to send the instruction to. There are mutli-threaded apps out there, but most cost no less than $5k. On a standard PC, noone is going to make use of dual processors
