Why does it say BUS speed 100Mhz when it's 400Mhz?

Tags: Dell, Dimension, 4300
I have a Dell computerwith a P4 1.8GB CPU, a 400MHZ MB and SDRAM PC133 memory.  When I go into the Dell BIOS it does day that the CPU is running at 1.8GH but why does it say that the BUS speed is 100MHZ? If I have a 400MHZ MB abd a CPU with a 400MHZ BUS speed and memory with a speed of 133, How does that work? I'm pretty sure I have this Bass Ackwords and Im just not getting a small point but I need to know if the board or CPU is messed up. .
