? about ntel® Core™ i5-450M Processor (3M cache, 2.40 GHz)

I have this CPU in my laptop. I understood it was a dual core CPU. But when looking at Affinity settings for a running app and also when looking at CPU in device manager it looks like a quad core. I believe there is a quad i5 out there. I know there is said to be 2 cores and 4 threads. Is that why the two items above are showing the details I've found?

Those are number of threads not cores.
