I'm pretty sure Quantispeed is just a dumbass buzzword like "netburst" or some shit like that, but here's a quote about the PR ratings I found at the Inquirer...
"
Responding to a question whether AMD would now be accused of confusing end users, a representative at the Milano press conference said poor performance from Intel Pentium 4 processors but fast clock speeds had forced his company to introduce the PR rating, because consumers would otherwise be dazzled by just the megahertz rating.
"
Hehe "dazzled" by the mhz rating...
