RAM & ROM
  1. RAM
    1. Random access memory
      1. RAM will be stored on your computer but only when you turn the power off, all of the data that was saved on RAM will be deleted.
        1. RAM Stores applications and The Graphical User Interface
          1. You can change what is stored on the RAM
          2. ROM
            1. Read only memory
              1. The purpose for ROM is so you can save your things and they would stay there after you shut down your computer (It would stay there for ever until you delete it).
                1. It contains the start up process to turn on and turn off the computer
                  1. But you cannot change what is stored on the ROM unless you have VERY VERY advanced equipment
                  2. Volatile is something that stores memory but needs power to work (RAM)
                    1. Non-volatile is memory storage that doesn't need power to work and save memory (ROM)
