Where does it tell me on the specification whether it's Dual-Core or Quad-Core. I see no mention of either on Sony S series.

At present, on my present laptop, I'm using windows live movie maker, but I need to progress to something more finely tuned so will buy separate software once I get settled. But I've been told I need 4 quad as opposed to 2 quad and I don't know which part of the specification this information is listed under.

One final question: would you say that the Sony SVS 1513G with 3632QM processor 2.20Ghz with turbo booster up to 3.20 and graphic NVIDIA Gforce GT650M LE GPU speed model Intel HD Graphics 4000 stamina mode 2gb DD23(speedmode) is sufficient to do detailed editing of films up to ten minutes long?

Movie Maker really is a basic tool and its ability to take advantage of more than 2 cores is questionable. For a more robust product, having more cores and a supported GPU (for GPU accelerated capabilities) can make the editing/rendering process faster.

Just keep all of this in mind for your future hardware and software purchases.
