Replaced "machine" with "computer" -- the style guide advises against this.

In one instance, "machine" referred to the Pi in a theoretical scenario. I replaced that instance with "device" because I've seen that pattern elsewhere in the docs and it's a) less confusing that reusing the generic term computer and b) less fatiguing than repeating "Raspberry Pi" in full each time we refer to that Pi.
