Apple is not a computer company.

 
Apple is the largest computer and software company in the world.

 
Fun fact: they dropped the word “Computer” from their name decades ago.\

So?   Everything they sell is still a computer.

And every computer they sell is running Unix. From Macs to watches.

 
What is “Unix”? It’s just a trademark. The original meaning of a
particular way for a computer system (OS and userland) to operate has
gone, and Apple played an instrumental part in killing it.

Fun fact: Macs/iPhones/iPads make up the largest installed base of Unix
computers by a single company in the world.

Unix does not look dead to me.
