Yes in short it is. A basic explanation of computer memory (or Random Access Memory or RAM) is the place where your computer stores things in the short term that don't need to be remembered (if they did need to be remembered they would be on the hard drive), the more Memory you have the more data can be stored in this space.

What is computer memory in your opinion how much is good?

Computer MEMORY, Also known as Ram, is what speeds up your computer. Programs on your computer need memory as a temporary storage to run, only when the programs are running is it using memory. Depending on what computer you have and/or what you want and what you do on your computer. If you do a lot of multi-tasking with a lot of programs open then consider getting a 6 GB on a desktop and a 4 GB on a laptop. if you don't multi-task with multiple programs then consider getting from 4 GB on a desktop and 1-3 GB on a laptop. But usually 4 gigabytes is fine. I have a 3 GB Memory laptop with WIN7 Ultimate and it works pretty smoothly. If i had another GB for memory I would never have to worry about my laptop being slow on me

Not really, although in the early days of computing, you could do a lot with small amounts of memory. For example, the Sinclair Spectrum computer had 48kb of internal memory, which enabled it to do some pretty complex stuff (yes - I had one !) These days, computer memory is usually measured in Megabytes or Gigabytes - due to the advances in the amount of information computer chips can hold.
