     Re:  Registration Statement on Form S-8
          for 3,000,000 Employee Stock Purchase Plan Shares

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 June 15, 1995 (the
"Registration  Statement") in connection with the  registration  under  the
Securities  Act  of 1933, as amended, of 3,000,000 additional  shares  (the
"Shares")  of Apple Computer, Inc.'s Common Stock, no par value, authorized
for  issuance  under  the Employee Stock Purchase Plan  (the  "Plan").   As
counsel   in  connection  with  this  transaction,  I  have  examined   the
proceedings  taken, and I am familiar with the proceedings 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 subscription agreements 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/ Susan L. Thorner
