Someone Wanted to Know the Data Rate for Mars Rover

Someone Wanted to Know the Data Rate for Mars Rover, well here are a couple articles which mention some of them. The 7 bits per sec and 32 bits per sec are 'fallback' rates, something that's used as a last resort.

A "long, thin data pipe" is definitely an understatement!

Waaall, how 'bout that! The Rover has a Mac chip in it! :-P

As for that last 2 paragraphs, I think the following is appropriate.

Apparently one of the rovers is on the fallback rate. They still haven't decided if it's software or hardware. I think most of us have a good idea. Good quote Watson....LOL.....I remember a group I worked with that had a couple of lousy engineers. One of them was a software engineer and the other hardware. They were quietly refered to as "Soft Weenie" and "Hard Weenie". So the moral of the story?...If you're going to be a weeny its best to be a hard one! Thanks for the links....Ross
