Wow - that reminds me of the first computer I ever used....Rockwell AIM 65. It came out in '78 but I used it for my final year project for an EE degree in '87. It ran on a 6502 processor and I wrote all the progammes in Assembly. Ah the memories...... en.wikipedia.org

I don't disagree. This is why I said the answer depends on where you draw the line. I had a programmable calculator back in high school. You could even program it for some games (the one that I remember was targeting some object behind a mountain. You entered the angle and velocity of your missile and it told you if you hit the mountain or how far from the target you landed). And while strictly speaking that calculator was a computer (memory, CPU, I/O, programming) by today's common understanding it was not (or else my microwave is a computer too). Anyways, back to EV. I am surprised that nobody has made a business creating and selling EV operating system. It will be interesting to see if in the future we'll have Tesla compatible EVs and the like similar to Android and iPhone standards.
