The only difference is that Celeron D is now called a "335", rather than a "2.8GHz",

This is not true, practically speaking.

NewEgg: " Intel Celeron D 335 2.8 GHz, 533MHz FSB, 256K L2 Cache Processor - Retail"

HP: "Processor
Intel® Celeron D processors up to 335‡ (2.8GHz)"

So you see, OEMs and direct retailers prominently display the GHz, in addition to Intel's new (bewildering) model numbers.

Does that answer your question?

As I said before, I am not sure why AMD did not ALSO label their parts with the Intel model numbers. I suspect there may be a legal issue or risk. What do you think?
