Ok, I am using EE with the 25 Named Users now.  And if we have more users, I 
just total those up times that $950?

The machine has 2 cpus with 2 cores so I multiply them together for 4 cores?  
Then how does that translate to processors?

Hi Brian,
there is a license minimum for named users based on the edition, so the amount 
of cpu sockets, cores and edition may matters. Otherwise it is just the price 
times the quantity.

Source: http://www.oracle.com/us/corporate/pricing/databaselicensing-070584.pdf

- Standard Edition One requires a minimum of 5 Named User Plus licenses or the 
total number of actual users, which ever is greater
- Standard Edition requires a minimum of 5 Named User Plus licenses or the 
total number of actual users, which ever is greater
- The Enterprise Edition requires a minimum of 25 Named User Plus per Processor 
licenses or the total number of actual users, whichever is greater

What kind of edition you have to use depends on your application and the amount 
of sockets (SEO <= 2 sockets, SE <= 4 sockets, EE >= 4 sockets).
