Actually, his claim is even worse. He claims the Egyptians had Turing Machines, which are theoretical construct. The Turing Machine is a mathematical construct with inifinite tape, discrete cells on the tape, a read write head, a way of reading the tape, and the way of changing states depending on what is on the tape. This means it can computer anything a modern computer can compute. In fact, modern computers are referred to as Turing Complete.
Although they can be built, at least in theoryy, they are slow, and mechanical computing would not give us the same advantages of today's electronic computers.
The Only Working Turing Machine There Ever Was Probably
