By “computer” I mean a programmable, interactive electronic device made for the purpose of recording, storing, and retrieving information, including communications.

It could be a desktop, a laptop, a tablet, or even a phone, when used for the job. Any device where the interactive computing and data handling functions are the main purpose of the device.

I’m not counting all the devices that have some kind of chip embedded in them but are not meant for user-generated information processing; for example, a coffeepot, a clock, a car.
