It is a specific type of computer memory (RAM - Random Access Memory) that is required in all desktop and laptop computers. Kingston is a major company that sells computer memory and 1GB is usually a stick of "ram".
The type of memory module is typically used in laptop computers is known as SODIMM. This stands for small outline dual in-line memory module.

Memory modules are used for adding RAM to a computer motherboard. As a standard computer industry practice the motherboard manufacturers do not add RAM to motherboards but provide slots (empty sockets) to which memory modules can be added as per computer configuration needs of the end user. Semiconductor RAM which is manufactured as standard chips is assembled on printed circuit boards as memory modules of different capacities (e.g 512MB , 1GB or 2GB). Examples include SIMM, DIMM, SODIMM. These module printed circuit board size, shape and signals are standard as defined for various memory types e.g. 200pin laptop DDR2 SODIMM is a common laptop memory type these days. Since there are standard modules for all type of computers, for a specific computer type you can just buy memory module and add RAM to the computer.
