Tim,
I too found it quite bizarre, but then I think I figured it out......
He's using the term "Apple //" like a person might use the designation
"PC". A Dell, a Compaq, an HP, a whatever, are all PC's. In other
words, he's using "Apple //" as a type or kind, not a brand. Like what
people, at least in the US, do with Kleenex, or Scotch Tape, or Crescent
Wrenchs
