We’re seeing a new trend and we like it – dual core netbooks . First it was the Eee PC 1215PN that used Intel’s shiny new dual core Atom N550 netbook chips and now Acer has one in theworks too. Macles has posted details about a new Acer Aspire One D255 netbook with the dual core Atom chip. Aesthetically, this new Acer Aspire One D255 looks a lot like the recently launched Aspire One D260 , but of course, it features the Atom N550 processor with dual 1.5GHz cores and 512KB of L2 cache. Like other Atom processors, the N550 supports hyperthreading, which means that Windows will report you have 4 CPUs… even though you don’t. Still, the hyperthreading should give you a bit of a boost when performing some tasks or multitasking
