Anyway, the F14 CADC SLF chip can be classified as a single-chip
microprocessor. I say "can" because you've get a different definition of
microprocessor depending on whom you ask.

Microprocessor-based computer? Read the question again.
Well, if you count a multiple-chip MOS VLSI CPU implementation as a
microprocessor-based computer, the 11/03 and 11/23 both qualify.
And if you don't count multi-chip implementations as microprocessors, then
the F-14 computer did not use a microprocessor.
