ROM- Read Only Memory. The CPU cannot easily write information into ROM, it is generally programmed upon manufacture with particular data. A program will be stored on ROM, the CPU will read ROM and carry out tasks dictated by the data it reads.
Think of it as making a meal in the kitchen. You're ROM (Hard Drive) would be the cabinet in this scenario. Sure it holds a lot, but it takes a while to get to. Ram is like your counter, you may not be able to store as much crap there, but it's a lot faster to get to.
Let's say you wanna make some food (or do an action on your computer), first you take out of the cabinets (the HD is read) then it's loaded into the RAM (Random Access Memory) which is a lot faster to get to, then it will be processed.
If you had no ROM on your computer technically it wouldn't boot up, it wouldn't even post. Your harddrive is rom, but technically the CMOS has ROM on it as well, which stores the BIOS data.

I do a fair amount of suggesting editorial changes to hubbers when I feel these may be helpful. I despise the challenge prompts testing whether or not I'm a person. First of all, my vision isn't exactly eagle acute. Second, if one letter or number is wrong, the mail won't send.I appreciate that I...

Did anyone else look at this garbage? It is not original by any means and does not deserve Hub of the Day. What are your thoughts?

Can you have too many tabs open on your computer and if so how many is too much?I usually end up with quite a few open at a time while writing due to marketing on social networking sites (that's my story and I'm sticking with it), email and of course HubPages. Most of the time I don't notice it...
