'''Apple Computers Interstellar''' is a personal computer and military hardware manufacturer within the [[Federated Suns]] located on the company-owned world of [[Macintosh]].<ref name=HD(TFS)p171>''House Davion (The Federated Suns)'', p. 171: "Other Major Companies in the Federated Suns"</ref>
 
 
==Overview==
 
Apple Computers Interstellar is an ancient company with a recorded history that began in the twentieth century.  Since its inception, the company has produced high quality items that are always a bit ahead of its rivals.  During the heyday of the [[Star League]], the company had enough wealth to purchase an entire planet, [[Drekos]], and had it renamed Macintosh after one of their older products. This world then became the interstellar headquarters of the company.<ref name=HB:HDp159/>
 
 
With the fall of the Star League and the beginning of the [[Succession Wars (History)|Succession Wars]], many of the factories and technologies created by Apple Computers Interstellar were destroyed. By [[3025]], only the personal computer plant on Macintosh still existed, yet this factory still produced products of near-Star League levels of technology and the company continued developing plans to expand. The company soon began providing the Federated Suns military with communication and targeting equipment.<ref name=HD(TFS)p171/>
 
 
By [[3067]], Apple had manufacturing facilities on [[Donegal]], [[Grumium]], [[Irian]], and [[New Avalon]], with additional factories having been overrun during the [[Clan Invasion]] and subsequently controlled by Clans [[Clan Wolf|Wolf]] and [[Clan Jade Falcon|Jade Falcon]].<ref name=HB:HDp159/>
 
 
During the [[Jihad]], Apple Computers Interstellar sustained only 10% personnel losses and operations at the Macintosh facilities were at 95% of their production capacity in [[3079]].<ref name=OBFSp4>''Objectives: Federated Suns'', p. 4: "State of the Industry at a Glance (Dec 3079)"</ref>
