    Apple Computer Company was founded on April Fools Day, 1976, but Apple Computer INC was incorporated in January 1977. There is no such thing as “Apple Computer” or “Apple.” Unless of course you are talking about actual Apples, which were not really founded, but rather, domesticated and later spread by Johnny Appleseed who was born in 1977 and died in 1847, according to Wikipedia.
