Re: Registration Statement on Form S-8
for 1990 Stock Option Plan
Ladies and Gentlemen:
I have examined the Registration Statement on Form S-8 to be filed
with the Securities and Exchange Commission on or about May 27, 1994 (the
"Registration Statement") in connection with the registration under the
Securities Act of 1933, as amended, of 3,600,000 additional shares (the
"Shares") of Apple Computer, Inc.'s Common Stock, no par value, authorized
for issuance under the 1990 Stock Option Plan, as amended (the "Plan"). As
counsel in connection with this transaction, I have examined the actions
taken, and I am familiar with the actions proposed to be taken, in
connection with the issuance and sale of the Shares pursuant to the Plan.
It is my opinion that, when issued and sold in the manner described in
the Plan and pursuant to the agreements which accompany each grant under
the Plan, the Shares will be legally and validly issued, fully paid and
nonassessable.
I consent to the use of this opinion as an exhibit to the Registration
Statement, and further consent to the use of my name wherever appearing in
the Registration Statement.
Very truly yours,
/s/ Peter M. Moldave
