It reminds me of when AMD was advertising their CPUs as 3200mhz + when in reality the CPU was running at like 2.66ghz
BTW - AMD never did that, they advertised processors as follows:

AMD 3200+ (2.66Ghz) The 3200+ was used so you could compare AMD to Intel processors. Similar performing processors ran at different speeds.

ie. AMD 3200+ (2.66Ghz) is equal to a 3.2Ghz intel

AMD is finally getting away from that naming schema.
