Apple Announces New Math Solutions Bundle at the National Council of
Teachers of Mathematics Conference

INDIANAPOLIS, Indiana--April 13, 1994--Apple Computer, Inc. today announced
at the National Council of Teachers of Mathematics (NCTM) Conference, the
Apple Education Series Math Solutions Bundle (for Grades 5-8), the
company's new offering designed to provide students with an interactive
and dynamic mathematics program to enhance existing curriculum.  The
package, which will be available for purchase by K-12 institutions in
mid-June, is part of the Apple Education Series product family, which
includes the Teacher Solution Bundle, and the Connections line of language
and literacy offerings.

The combined hardware/software package makes it easier for educators to
integrate the right hardware and software components, taking advantage of
new technologies such as video and multimedia, that make math come alive
for students.  The Apple Math Solutions Bundle was developed in
collaboration with members of Apple's Math Advisory Council, comprised of
mathematics experts and teachers.

"National content standards set by the NCTM are changing the way educators
teach and how students learn mathematics today," according to Dick
Callahan, director of marketing for Apple USA's K-12 Education Division. 
"We believe the Apple Math Solutions Bundle will help teachers achieve one
of the most challenging National Education Goals--to have U.S. students be
first in the world in mathematics and science by the year 2000."

Dynamic, Customized Math Instruction

The Apple Math Solutions Bundle combines the Apple Macintosh LC 575,
Apple's powerful, new all-in-one education workstation, with six software
packages focusing on math for grades 5-8.   These leading math curriculum
products, which were designed with NCTM standards in mind, cover the
mathematics spectrum and include Tesselmania from MECC; Probability
Constructor by LOGAL; Learning in Motion's Measurement in Motion; and
Divide & Conquer and Building Perspective from Sunburst/Wings for
Learning.  Also included is Claris Corporation's ClarisWorks, which
combines software such as word processing, database, spreadsheet and
graphics in one efficient environment.

The hardware component features the LC 575 with the built-in 14-inch color
display; and the integrated AppleCD 300i Plus CD-ROM drive, microphone,
and stereo speakers.  With this integrated solution, teachers can choose
among innovative math software programs that best meet the method of
instruction for their students' needs.

The Apple Math Solutions Bundle is available for purchase by K-12
institutions in mid-June, at an approximate cost of $2,000.  To obtain
