Apple criticizes Microsoft settlement proposal

          by Peter Cohen, pcohen@maccentral.com

          Last week Microsoft Corp. floated a proposal to settle 
various
private suits. Microsoft proposed the donation of software, training
services, and refurbished computer hardware to 14,000 of the nation's
poorest schools in its quest to quell the suits. Today Apple responded
to the Microsoft proposal with a legal brief and critical comments from
CEO Steve Jobs.
