"Computador" or "computadora" (informally "compu") is the Spanish equivalent of the English word "computer." It originated from the Latin "computator." Another term used in Spanish, specifically in Spain, borrowed from French "ordinateur" (from Latin "ordinātor"), is "ordenador."
@mapologies I always liked so much the COMPUTADORA variant, although in Spain we call it ORDENADOR. But at the very beginning I think that COMPUTADORA was the chosen term in all the Spanish-speaking area.
