No it doesn't. Why don't you try looking up the word in a dictionary,
encyclopedia, or do a websearch next time you feel a need to make a complete
fool of yourself?
A typical definition: "A device that computes, especially a programmable
electronic machine that performs high-speed mathematical or logical
operations or that assembles, stores, correlates, or otherwise processes
information." http://www.answers.com/computer&r=67
And the embedded processor inside every hidef player qualifies.
