Intel and others are planning to release multi-core CPUs starting next year. Dual cores are just the start. Expect any number of cores to be included on a CPU in the future.

Quote

Intel isn't the only chipmaker expecting twins. Nearly every processor company has multiple-core plans. IBM has been selling dual-core chips for servers for a few years, while ARM sells dual-core chips for cell phones. Intel rival Advanced Micro Devices has said it will create chips with two, four and eight cores, too. Its first dual-core chip will also come out in 2005.
