It's actually not considered a fruit or vegetable. It's an "accessory fruit", or pseudo-fruit. The edible part (the strawberry itself) does not form from the ovary like other fruits, but from the part of the stem which holds the ovaries.

A fruit, by definition would have seeds. Strawberries propagate through "shoots" the plant sends out separate from the strawberries, not through seeds.
It is a fruit.

Actually vegetables DO have seeds. Cucumbers have seeds on the inside when you cut them open. Pumpkin, squash, all have seeds, it's just on the inside. Fruits like bananas and apples also have their seeds on the inside of them. A peach has one big seed.
