AMD has given the Palominos their 1500 plus etc. names, and not used the clock speeds of the processors, to move away from direct comparisons with Intel processor speeds. Or to be more precise, it's given them names to suggest faster clock speeds than they've got, based on their rule of thumb that AMD processors match or beat the performance of Intel processors which are 300MHz faster.

A direct admission by AMD that even their newest processors, XP1800 is beaten by Intel's fastest P4. Furthermore that is based on AMD's own rating system.

Clearly MegaHurts.
