I have just ran lshw
to get some information about a machine I know nothing about, and I just wanted to confirm something.
Does this basically mean it is a dual core 64 bit processor that is installed?
*-logicalcpu:0
description: Logical CPU
physical id: 0.1
width: 64 bits
capabilities: logical
*-logicalcpu:1
description: Logical CPU
physical id: 0.2
width: 64 bits
capabilities: logical
Looking further down I see this
*-cpu:1
physical id: 1
bus info: cpu@1
version: 6.7.6
serial: 0001-0676-0000-0000-0000-0000
size: 3150MHz
capabilities: vmx ht
configuration: id=0
*-logicalcpu:0
description: Logical CPU
physical id: 0.1
capabilities: logical
*-logicalcpu:1
description: Logical CPU
physical id: 0.2
capabilities: logical
Which makes me almost certain it is dual core but not convinced on the 64 bit.
Any help for this n00b would be greatly appreciated!

It's often overlooked, so worth a shot. Sorry if this is insultingly obvious :
Alt-F2, then
gnome-system-monitor
Also, when I ran
sudo lshw | grep -i cpu
, I see a line which says cpus=2.
