That literally what I mean about the clock work computers, using gears to do math, which is what the Antykthera Mechanism does.
The Antykthera device didn't do any math. You turn a crank and it makes the planets rotate together. You could "observe" the rough positions of the planets, but the device did not actually perform any logic.
