 '''Random Access Memory''' (often given as '''RAM''') is slang term for a computer's [[main memory]]. RAM is almost always implemented with [[Dynamic RAM]] now, instead of [[Static RAM]], for cost-savings; it can be written and read at will.
-Many people confuse this with [[disk]] [[secondary memory]] (although technically disks are also [[random access]] - unlike, say, tape [[secondary storage]]).
