PS/2
An IBM series of personal computers which
established a number of standards for con-
necting external devices such as keyboards
and monitors.
RAM
Random Access Memory. A hardware compo-
nent of your computer that holds binary infor-
mation (both program and data) as long as it
has the proper power applied to it.
RAM Module
A printed circuit card with memory and associ-
ated circuitry which allows the user to add
additional memory to the computer without
special tools.
Reset
The act of reloading the operating system.
A reset erases all information stored in RAM.
Restart
See Reset.
Resume
To proceed after interruption. In your
Computer this refers to returning to active
operation after having been in one of the
suspension states.
ROM
Read Only Memory. A form of memory in
which information is stored by physically alter-
ing the material. Data stored in this way can not
be changed by your Computer and does not
require power to maintain it.
SCSI
Small Computer Systems Interface (pronounced
scuzzy). An American National Standards
Institute (ANSI) standard for connecting
multiple (up to 7) high speed parallel
devices to a computer.
SDRAM
Synchronous Dynamic Random Access Memory.
Serial Port
A connection to another device through which
data is transferred one bit at a time on a single
wire with any other wires only for control of
the device not for transfer of data.
Shadow RAM
A technique of copying data or applications
stored in ROM (Read Only Memory) into RAM
(Random Access Memory) for access during
actual operation. RAM is much faster to access
than ROM, however ROM contents are not lost
when power is removed. Shadowing allows
permanently stored information to be
rapidly accessed.
SRAM
Static random access memory. A specific tech-
nology of making RAM which does not require
periodic data refreshing.
Status Indicator
A display which reports the condition of some
portion of your hardware. On your Computer
this is an LCD screen just above the keyboard.
