From: <http://www.adobe.com/support/techdocs/a096.htm> PRAM General Information A Macintosh computer's Parameter Random Access Memory (PRAM), which contains 20 to 256 bytes of default information for your system, is located in the computer's clock chip. The clock chip is powered by a battery when the Macintosh is turned off so that default and user settings are present the next time you restart the Macintosh. PRAM contains values for the following: -- validity status of the clock chip -- clock settings (alarm setting, time, date) -- node ID hint for a modem port (9600 baud, 8 data bits, 2 stop bits, no parity) and printer port -- modem port configuration stop bits -- printer port configuration and connection -- printer connection -- monitor colors -- application font number minus 1 -- auto-key threshold and rate -- speaker volume -- double-click time -- caret-blink time -- menu blink -- mouse scaling -- preferred system start-up disk -- network setting (network defaults to LocalTalk) ......................
