There is two types. There is DDR notebook RAM and there is DDR desktop ram. They can't be used vin each other (notebook RAM can't be used in a desktop) unless (in rare circumstances) you happen to have a notebook ram port on your desktop's motherboard. But no, DDR is a technology. Both desktops and notebooks support this technology because there is notebook DDR and desktop DDR. but notebook DDR can't be put in desktop DDR and vice versa.
No lol
Ram upgrades are easy to do if the the computer is a desktop. If your computer is a laptop then it will be a lot harder to switch out your ram. However desktop computers are much easy and can be done at home.
No, not usually. Check with your motherboard specifications to see what RAM is needed and the maximum RAM your motherboard can handle.
When XP starts you go directly to the desktop without having to log on.
The type of RAM that a desktop computer uses depends upon the design of the specific motherboard that is installed in the computer. Refer to the specifications of the motherboard or of the computer manufacturer (i.e. Dell, HP) to determine the proper type of RAM for your computer.
Yes, you can.
If I was to purchase a computer that is a average desktop computer how much RAM and Rom should I have?
Modern laptops use what are called "SO-DIMM" modules. These are much shorter in length than desktop modules, and are not electrically or physically compatible with desktop memory. Some older laptops did indeed use desktop modules, but these are in the relative minority.

The computer most likely will not boot,RAM is how data gets from point a to point b, if theres no highway for data to travel(RAM) how can the computer boot?
Neither is "greater". Laptop RAM is generally provided in a smaller package, called SODIMM, while desktop RAM is generally provided in a larger, cheaper package called DIMM. For the most part, any memory you can get for a desktop you can also get, more expensively but otherwise effectively identical, for a laptop.
