RAM (Random Access Memory) is the most common type of computer memory. RAM (commonly referred to as main memory) is the memory available to programs. RAM is volatile, meaning it loses its contents when power to the computer is turned off.

RAM is short for RANDOM ACCESS MEMORY. A cumputer uses it for "handy jobs"
its like this : u wud knw many phone numbers ...of friends ... business... etc etc.
There r some numbers u use often or may b needed ( think 911) often these u just rember n dnt have to look up a telephone index or some thing . .. they r in ur "RAM"
and if u need to look up the number of dell customer care (for example) u wud need to search the net or ur telephone index etc.. which is like ur Hadr disk !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
