Well, a computer is defined as:

"an electronic device which is capable of receiving information (data) in a particular form and of performing a sequence of operations in accordance with a predetermined but variable set of procedural instructions (program) to produce a result in the form of information or signals."

So it's not wrong to call them as such. Perhaps a general / anachronistic term. Semantics aside, I doubt anyone would not know what one was talking about if they used the word.
