If infinite Taylor series can define trigonometric functions, and Euler series are constructed using trigonometric functions as their terms, why are there functions which can be described by Fourier series but not Taylor series?

In 2007 it was proven that Wolfram's two state, three symbol Turing machine was universal, i.e. that it could compute anything that can be computed. Is there a similarly universal three state, two symbol universal Turing machine out there?
