sed command not working

Code:
cat bipin.txt
Unix is an OS
Unix has its own commmands
Unix is a user friendly OS
Unix is platform independent
Unix is a time sharing OS
the best OS to learn is Unix
Abinitio uses Unix in backend

this is my file
when i use sed 's/Unix/Linux/' bipin.txt all the occurences are getting replaced , actually if we give the command only the first occurence must be replaced right ??

Could someone please tell me where i am doing the mistake
