1. It had/has wireless card built-in. Atheros AR9285.
2. Intel does not have a compatible CPU that would meet our standards. The one compatible i7 CPU is the Intel® Core™ i7-3770T Processor (8M Cache, up to 3.70 GHz). We won't stock it because the CPU has "Intel® vPro Technology" and "Intel® Trusted Execution Technology". Both are technologies which are problematic due to digital restrictions and/or have potential privacy issues.
If you still wanted to get it with that CPU you would have to put in a custom request via email and wait a few extra days for us to process the order. We have to get the CPU in and then assemble the unit.
The better solution is to go with the Penguin Pro and get an i7 that doesn't include this technology. The system won't be small although it will have an i7 and it won't have these technologies.
