Apple to unveil new Macs next week: report

Apple Inc. will show off new Mac personal computers at an event Oct. 27, Recode reported Tuesday afternoon. Sales of Apple's line of PCs languished in the back-to-school quarter, according to third-party reports released last week, and analysts said the lack of new Mac models likely contributed to a downturn in sales. Apple originally scheduled its earnings report for Oct. 27, but later moved it to Oct. 25 citing a scheduling conflict. Apple declined to comment to Recode for its report.
