I don't disagree with assertion about Apple and similar companies but they end up selling you a physical hardware product.
Bufferbox offered a service and didn't sell you a product therefore I don't think they were "hardware" company. The hardware was means to an end.
I don't think it lessens what they did. It was a good service.
Walmart has a large IT infrastructure, with sys admins and in-house developers. They also manage a lot of buildings, and warehouses. I wouldn't consider them an IT company, a property management company, or a logistics company.
