Thanks! --------------- Well, I'm no electronics engineer, but what does RAM have to do with PRAM? As I understand things, PRAM provides a small power source to maintain clock time and certain "parameter" settings. Thus "parameter RAM" which is a separate thing from the volatile RAM that is used by applications.
