Quad Core. Up to 3GHz.

gadgetcoma: #apple_mac_pro Compare the price of the Mac Pro to other desktops with the same power - I don't think you'll find it's over priced. Remember, it has multiple processors. Most other machines with multiple processors are high-end gaming machines that typically start at $4,000+.

Also, Bluetooth and Wifi are not standard but are available as options. Jan 5, 09
