Well, yes, but this could get hairy, figuring out who to include. You
could say the same thing about GE, for example - they still make
computers for their own products, but no computers per se. And then
there is the whole defense industry. General Mills? Rockwell-Collins?

I would say to keep it confined to older corporations that made
general purpose computers a long time ago, and still make  general
purpose computers today (and by that I would mean anything from micros
to supers).
