Understanding RAM for beginners

In this video I talk about what RAM is in simple terms. I also talk about what is necessary to consider when buying RAM and I answer the question- 'Does more RAM speed up your computer?'

Data on a hard disk drive (HDD) is not accessed sequentially. It's accessed randomly just like RAM. Tape drive data is accessed sequentially. One of the reasons why a HDD is much slower than RAM is due to the fact that it's a mechanical device with lots of moving parts. RAM on the other hand is electronic with no moving parts.

I know RAM resets when a PC is rebooted. But I also see that some RAM is given back when certain programs are closed, and then still others do not give back memory when closed. What determines which programs hold onto RAM after being closed?
