Organic (plastic) transistors have been made, and fabricated into
circuits using a process similar to conventional printing. You could
use that process to make an organic computer. The performance and
memory density would be dismal, but perhaps it would be suitable for
some very specialized applications.

And there is the process used in TFT displays. I guess you could make
logic out of that as well. But no one does.
