  CUPERTINO, Calif. -DJ- Apple Computer Inc. said it examined the allegations
of a suit filed yesterday by Xerox Corp., which challenges the validity
of Apple's copyrights covering the Lisa and Macintosh computers' graphical
user interfaces, and believes the claims are ''entirely without merit.''
  

  Apple said that although the suit makes claims for unlawful use of
copyrighted Xerox software and charges Apple with copyright ''misrepresentatio-
n'', Xerox makes no allegations of copyright infringement.   

  Apple said it intends to ''vigorously'' contest the claims in court,
  

  ''The allegation that Apple's Lisa and Macintosh copyrights are not
valid is completely unfounded,'' said Edward Stead, vice president and
general counsel, in a press release.
