Everyone that i work with would call the ARM a processing board.
One would still need an input device & an output device to meet the definition. Processing files may be the act of computing. The heart of the system is not the whole system. A calculator is more of a computer according to the dictionary.
I can see SolidRun's marketing team referring to the board as a system, as it has more than just a processor. But without the rest of the components that make up a mainboard, even a razberri Pi mainboard: it takes more to make it a complete computer as defined in dict.
