The F14 CADC SLF chip fits this definition, BTW.
There's a lot more out there than Intel would have you believe :) Give me
some time to pull my notes together on this (life is still a mess after
VCF). I'm taking a trip to Dallas tomorrow thru Friday, so give me until
the weekend to give you some starter information. I'm hoping there's a
web site out there I can point you to as well.

Single,
monolithic IC with....? What? A transistor on it? An ALU with
"control logic"? You run into the same problem. Who's definition do we
agree upon? The answer seemingly is the same as the answer for "who has
the most money?"
A single monolithic IC that contains a complete CPU capable of executing
stored programs from external memory (or optionally, internal memory). Have you ever
heard of the AL1 from Four Phase Systems? Circa 1968, and
also the first "microprocessor" :)
No, please tell us about it.
