Because the popular competing RAMBUS standard runs at clock rates up to 800MHz but offers inferior real-world performance to DDR, the JEDEC standards body which has forged the DDR SDRAM standard has created naming conventions which more accurately showcase DDR's advantages:

DDR RAM is called PC2100 (133MHz DDR) and PC1600 (100MHz DDR), in line with Rambus's PC800 naming convention. This naming configuration is a JEDEC standard, and it is NOT called PC266 or PC200.

It also illustrates better the point that DDR is up to 2.5x faster than Rambus PC800.

IMHO one thing MU has done right is focus on DDR rather than RDRAM. (RMBS at 400+! is even crazier than MU at 100+)
