Indeed, while I've always felt that it's strange to refer to a computerized image as a nagh beQ, I suppose it's really not much stranger than referring to a digital movie as a "film", or to a plastic table covering as a "tablecloth". Also, while I'm not a computer expert, I'm pretty certain that not all storage disks are disk-shaped.
