You may be right, i can’t find a quote for item level, but under the crafting computers rules you can build a computer with a tier = 1/2 your ranks in computers or engineering. Crafting anything else says you can make up to an item level = to your ranks. A datapad is listed as a tier 1 example and is a level 2 item in the technological items list. With all this in mind I’d think a computer is a 2 x Tier level item.

Would a computer be considered a Major or Minor item?
They cannot eat a computer, as far as I can tell. They don't have a level. They do have a Tier, but that is not directly comparable to a leveled item, at least in the text of the entry.
Alternatively, they CAN eat a computer, and nothing means anything because they can then eat something that has an undefined value. Throw out the investment rules altogether (no, actually do it, please).
