A neural network computer has a network of something, what are the things that are networked? Are they individual processors? Some other form of logic?
I get that part, but what are the "neurons"? Is that just a general name for a decision making element?

Network of networks. At the lowest level are the actual "neurons" - implemented in models - which form an interconnected decision-making matrix. It's more a reflection of logic connections than specifying physical components. It's not a network of computers or processors. It is a network of neurons. These neurons (the net) may indeed be spread out over the network or amongst CPUs or servers or workstations, but that's merely an implementation description, not how they work.
