A way back long before i was born they made this thing called a 'computer' and while there still make 'computers' now they go by many other names, but they are still computers. Here is an example ... iLiad by iRex. While still a computer as it has a keyboard, monitor, linux operation system, USB ports, WiFi it has become something different so we call it something different.
Its called progress. Renaming things to better suit what they actually are. Very simple concept for most...
