Apple Ships Windows Client Software for AppleShare and AppleSearch

CUPERTINO, California--May 24, 1995 -- Apple Computer, Inc. today announced
availability of its AppleShare and AppleSearch Client for Windows software
products. The AppleShare Client for Windows, which allows Windows users to
access AppleTalk-based file and print services, will be included with all
of Apple's Workgroup Servers, making them a low-cost, easy-to-use
cross-platform solution. Apple also is shipping the AppleSearch Client for
Windows in its text search and retrieval software package--AppleSearch
v1.5.

All Workgroup server customers who purchased a Workgroup Server after Jan.
1, 1995, along with customers of the Apple Internet Server Solution for
the World Wide Web and AppleSearch v1.5, can call (800) 617-1788 to

Significance

Both the AppleShare and AppleSearch Client for Windows software products
are designed to give Windows users an inexpensive and easy way to connect
to AppleTalk-based LANs with the same computing look-and-feel of standard
Windows network application programs. Both of the products provide
customers in mixed workgroups--those using Apple Macintosh personal
computers and Windows-based PCs--the ability to access information and
work together over a network with the same ease-of-use that has always
been available for Macintosh networks. Both Windows products come with a
network license that allows distribution of the Windows client software to
any Windows-based PC connected to the network.

Included in the AppleShare Client for Windows product is the AppleTalk
Network Protocol Stack for Windows, co-developed by Apple and Miramar
Systems Inc. of Santa Barbara, California. The AppleTalk Network Protocol
Stack for Windows will enable independent software developers (ISVs) of
database, e-mail, scheduling and other network services to develop
cross-platform versions of their applications.
