No they meant dual-processor. There were no dual-core PowerPC cpus ever used
in Macs. This one may have had it's cpu board replaced.
Not true: the quad G5 is technically a dual-CPU, dual-core G5. But you are
correct in that there was never a dual-core G4.

Hopefully you can move the RAM video card from the dead 2.0 over to the

those pins.
