Sorry, your english is very good so that's why I felt alright with correcting you. If I had known it was your second language I would have cut you some slack. So, good on you and bad on me! It was the heat of the moment.
Yes, military companies have certainly influenced all our lives but I guarantee you, as someone who had to use computers before Mac and Windows existed, Apple profoundly changed my life when the first Apple computer entered my life in 1985. More directly than any of those companies you listed. And I have to wonder what ANY computing (including whether mobile devices would even exist) would be like now if Jobs hadn't identified the potential in that GUI that Xerox management didn't feel the need to put any effort into developing further. He's the reason Microsoft found out about it and stole it from Apple to create Windows. Up until then, people muddled through with text-only computers and computations on huge mainframes. Being just 17, you have missed a TON of real computing history that has changed the world as much as any war has. You take being able to see what you are doing on a computer while you do it for granted. I don't.
But that's the thing, even if a story was completely fictional ("Steve Jobs' visit at the Buran launch site in Kazakhstan", for example) it would still have to capture the personas of the actual people referenced in the title.
If the word had been "historic" you may have had reason to shudder, even though any number of people would disagree, but "historical" simply refers to actual events in the past.
I stand corrected
