--[[User:Warren Schudy|Warren Schudy]] 17:56, 1 January 2008 (CST) This page was actually defining Turing Completeness, not Turing Machine. A Turing Machine is a specific computational model. A Turing Complete machine is any machine that can simulate a Turing Machine. Wikipedia's article on Deterministic Turing Machine is pretty good, so I suggest that we import it. I just ended the existing article a bit to avoid confusing readers in the interim.
