Dynamic Random Access Memory (see also SDRAM). A type of memory used in a PC for the main memory (such as your "32 Mbytes of RAM".) "Dynamic" refers to the memory's memory of storage - basically storing the charge on a capacitor. Specialized types of DRAM (such as EDO memory) have been developed to work with today's faster processors.
