I'm to dumb to know. Can someone please tell me.

It would vary on the context, but in some cases yes. However, it can also refer to flash drives, usb drives, ROM, and various other things.

To put it simply... it is not suppose to be the same thing, but some people think of it that way.

Let me rephrase this I'm looking at a computer with 2 gb memory. Is that ram.

yes (10 chars)

RAM = random access memory.

So RAM is a type of memory. Memory is not a type of RAM.

Thanks all of you.
