"With the recent introduction of dual-core processors come more questions about system performance. Does a dual-core computer really perform better than a single-core CPU? How does it compare to a true multi-CPU system? What about Hyper-Threading Technology -- is it a thing of the past? Read on for an explanation of dual-core processors and symmetric multiprocessing and what it means to your computing experience."

"That means one logic core. So it's not multi-threaded. "
You are confusing multi-threading with multiple cpu's.
XP, and even win95, is very much multi-threaded BUT they dont necessarily take advantage of multiple cores/cpu's.
