Talk:RAM

Could the "Random" part of RAM have something to do with earlier forms of memory, like drum or core memory? I remember from a book on PARC that our type of ram was originally called DRAM (Dyanamic RAM). Core could be accessed randomly, like present day RAM, but earlier drum memory was (kinda) sequential, in that you had to wait for the section with your data to come back around.

Dys, it was my impression that == markup for sectioning was used for "metasections" such as See also and External Sources, while === was used for the primary sections of the main article. I'm willing to try it your way, but it seems to be used pretty consistently. Crazyeddie 03:08, Aug 25, 2004 (EDT)

Headers should be logically ordered. We start headers from h2 for sections and use h3 for subsections, and so on. Not doing this will muck up the table of contents otherwise, also. Dysprosia 01:16, Aug 28, 2004 (EDT)

Okay, I'll do it that way from now on. Crazyeddie 19:18, Aug 28, 2004 (EDT)
