I think that this is a more interesting question that I posted, because it has moral implications to it. Pleas re-read:
If RAM is so fast and wonderful because it has no moving parts to break down, then why don't we have a 20GB RAM? can you store everything on RAM? Or will all stored data drain out when you turn off your computer?
If data cannot be stored permenantly on RAM, then would it be possible to have enough RAM to make a little hard drive within it? If your computer stores all of your surfing activities in that "RAM hard drive", then when your finished and you turn off your computer, all of your "digital trail" is gone from your computer.
Wouldn't this make it more difficult to track down illegal activities on the World Wide Web?
