Well, it looks like u have sharing turned on. Which means that other devices will show up here that are nearby and are on your network. One of the icons is another MacBook and I can't read the other.

Sharing can be turned off in system preferences I believe.

Yes, there is a Sharing icon in system preferences that you can turn on and off all sharing preferences.

But even if you have sharing turned off, you will still see other computers (with sharing activated) or other shared things on the network.
