Absolutely a computer is an instrument.
It doesn't matter how the sound wave is produced; it's what you do with it.

A computer makes sounds... an instrument makes music.

Computers can also make music. Perhaps you should look up every electronica artist for the past 20/30 years?

once a computer can create all the nuances of a guitar all by itself, i doubt it qualifies as an "instrument"

Would you be ok with computer software synthesizers being called "virtual instruments"? Because that's what they're called. Perhaps we should use that qualifier to end this entire debate.

i have no problems of them being called "virtual instruments", just not an actual "musical instrument"
