Random Access Memory.. LOL.. the memory stored for functions that happen frequently, stored in a special area as to not access the slow hard drive. Ram has changed quite a bit since the 90's tho. Less is required now actually since most of the memory happens in the bus now and accessed from places other than hard disk. Its likely now that you access cashe memory more often than ram. especially while remarking on stupid 4greenacres posts. Bwahahahahaha
