I may have rounded off my memory. I know it was around 3GHz, and the
price tag for the setup displayed was almost $5500.

I don't remember which monitor and other stuff that included, but I
figure the machine was at least $3500.

Keep in mind though, that CompUSA is usually days to weeks behind
Apple price decreases. I have seen them as much as 2-3 months behind
sometimes.
