A legal name change means they stopped making “computers” from an engineers perspective? Banal political filings have little bearing on what makes a computer.

Banal political filings have little bearing on what makes a computer.
- mmmmmbop 6y agoNo one claimed Apple stopped making computers, so you're attacking a straw man here. All that was pointed out is that there is no Apple Computer (note the capitalization) company anymore, as it was renamed to Apple Inc. in 2007.
- semanticHurt 6y agoWhat’s the difference between a computer and a “mobile device”? OP made a pointless semantic separation.
- madeofpalk 6y agoI interpreted "OP" as mentioning "Apple Computer" for emphasis, as in they are a computer company, not a fitness company. This was a flawed comment because the premise was incorrect - they stopped being "Apple Computer" a long time ago. Yes, Apple makes computers like macs and iphones and watches. A huge part of their "watch computer" is fitness, and they have an on-demand fitness video service to accompany that.
