Default Rover brains?

Unfortunately the info posted really is targeted towards high school kids
and the language used is not up to the mark. Why are such frilly words like
"brain" used to describe the electronics.
I too wish they had more details in straight forward eningeering language.

JPL has some limited information about the Mars rover electronics and the
VME bus:

What kind of CPU and O/S are the rovers using (or do I really want to

know)?
