Non-Retina MacBook Pro being pulled from displays

Just a week after the Apple Worldwide Developers Conference (WWDC), a report from The Next Web states that Apple has started pulling the legacy non-Retina MacBook Pro from store displays in and near San Diego, California.

Clerks were reportedly surprised because the legacy units were still selling well among older buyers. There was also no clear word from management regarding why they needed to clear stocks from the sales floor.

On the other hand, it makes sense since according to the keynote from WWDC, a new line of MacBook Pros will be entering the market soon. Alfred Bayle

Another ‘American Idol’ alum heading to Broadway

NEW YORK— A former “American Idol” finalist is heading to Broadway with a character who, it’s safe to say, is truly two-faced.

Constantine Maroulis will play the title dual role in a revival of the musical “Jekyll & Hyde” that’s slated to come to New York in spring 2013 after a 25-week national tour that starts in San Diego on Oct. 2.

The Tony Award nominated musical features a story and lyrics by two-time Oscar winner Leslie Bricusse and music by Frank Wildhorn. It’ll be directed and choreographed by Jeff Calhoun.

The musical made its Broadway debut in 1997 with such songs as “This is the Moment,” ”A New Life” and “Someone Like You,” earning four Tony nominations. Robert Cuccioli played the lead, and Sebastian Bach and David Hasselhoff later took over.
