April 28, 1998 (TOKYO) -- Eiko Harada, president of Apple Computer Japan
Inc., said that "a big announcement" can be expected from Steve Jobs,
interim CEO of Apple Computer Inc., in a keynote speech Jobs will deliver
at the Worldwide Developers Conference, which starts May 11. Harada also
said that Apple Computer has a strong future.


"My lips are sealed, and I'm not even sure I know the full story of the
announcement to be made by Jobs," Harada said.


"Apple is on the road to recovery and there's no lack of confidence in the
company," he also said.


Demonstrating his full support in the leadership of Jobs, Harada credited
the parent company's improved business performance to "the swift and sound
judgment of Steve Jobs."
