They are correct. PC1600 = PC200 = PC100, PC2100 = PC266 = PC133. It's all in the way that you look at it. The PC2100 refers to DDR's 2.1 GBps rate. PC266 is effective mhz speed of the RAM, and PC133 is actual speed of the ram, as it is double pumped to get 266.

For all you're worried about, yeah, they're the same.
