"Good news" -- Spirit responds in 'cripple mode'

You won't find this information because it's bull****. But you go ahead and
search for it. When you can't get it, ask yourself WHY. Or do like all the
other good citizen sheep do and make excuses for the lack of proof. And be
sure to precede each fact with "They probably used..." or "more than likely
it's..."

That way, you'll be believable - And a good presidential candidate!

Has Flash RAM been used in past space probes in any significant way?

Quite successfully on Deep Space 1, as I recall.

Where might one find technical information on the rover such as details
on the computer hardware and software?
