ISP Information:
This type of storage is not as fast as DRAM, but maintains data through power loss. It is very similar to Flash memory, except EEPROMs are normally written to one byte at a time, while Flash memory is written to in blocks. See also EPROM.
ISP Glossary:
Electronically Erasable PROM - In an editor's note, Pat wrote: The Demopublicans and the Rebublicrats have things so tied up (and they are essentially the same regards oppressive government legislation, etc) no one else ever gets a chance at it. And when a third party candidate comes along who is at all popular with a large number of people, (i.e. Ralph Nader) then the Demopublicans all grouse about how the new comer is going to spoil the election for the others.Those who are not happy with the stranglehold the two major partieshave on our political system and wish to vote for candidates theyprefer instead of choosing the lesser of two evils should push for theadoption of "Instant Runoff Voting".http://www.fairvote.org/irv/This system would encourage people to cast their votes for candidatesthey actually preferred, without the fear that doing so would allowthe eviler of two evils to be elected with less than a majority.
