Luscombe, Greenbaum & Gerstein: What is bioinformatics? An introduction and overview (2001)

(Molecular) bio - informatics: bioinformatics is conceptualising biology in terms of molecules (in the sense of physical chemistry) and applying "informatics techniques" (derived from disciplines such as applied maths, computer science and statistics) to understand and organise the information associated with these molecules, on a large scale. In short, bioinformatics is a management information system for molecular biology and has many practical applications.

Mount: Bioinformatics Sequence and Genome Analysis (2001 & 2004)

On the one hand, computational biology generally is concerned with the development of novel and efficient algorithms that can be proven to work on a difficult problem, such as multiple sequence alignment or genome fragment assembly. On the other hand, bioinformatics focuses more on the development of practical tools for data management and analysis, e.g., display of genome information and sequence analysis, but with less emphasis on efficiency and proven accuracy.

A Basic Introduction to the Science Underlying NCBI Resources / Bioinformatics (2004)

Bioinformatics is the field of science in which biology, computer science, and information technology merge to form a single discipline. The ultimate goal of the field is to enable the discovery of new biological insights as well as to create a global perspective from which unifying principles in biology can be discerned. [...] The actual process of analyzing and interpreting data is referred to as computational biology.

Altman: Bioinformatics & Computational Biology = same? No. (2009)

Computational biology = the study of biology using computational techniques. The goal is to learn new biology, knowledge about living sytems. It is about science.
Bioinformatics = the creation of tools (algorithms, databases) that solve problems. The goal is to build useful tools that work on biological data. It is about engineering.

I prefer the last one - it's the most obvious.
