Ok, looking into the Details of Windows Experience Index, I just saw something strange,

System  
  Manufacturer Dell Inc.
  Model MM061
  Total amount of system memory 2.00 GB RAM
  System type 32-bit operating system
  Number of processor cores 2
  64-bit capable Yes

What does 64-bit capable means? My processor is Intel(R) Core(TM)2 CPU T5300 @ 1.73GHz

Is that mean that my processor is 64 bit ?? Sealed

EM64T - it is a 64bit chip :)

I am not exactly sure on this, and some ready is required... but it looks like all Merom chipsets onwards, looking only at Core 2 Mobiles are 64 capable.

Can someone tell me if the Intel T2450 is "Core Duo" or "Core 2 Duo"? Most info says Core Duo but one Intel webpage said Core 2 Duo?

The Core Duo's aren't 64bit IIRC. Only the Core 2 Duo's are.

According to this page: http://www.intel.com/products/processor_number/chart/core2duo.htm the T5300 is:
T530065 nm2MB L21.73 GHz533 MHz
