Short for programmable read-only memory, a memory chip on which data can be written only once.
Once a program has been written onto a PROM, it remains there forever.
Unlike RAM, PROMs retain their contents when the computer is turned off.
The difference between a PROM and a ROM (read-only memory) is that a PROM is manufactured as blank memory, whereas a ROM is programmed during the manufacturing process.
To write data onto a PROM chip, you need a special device called a PROM programmer or PROM burner.
The process of programming a PROM is sometimes called burning the PROM.

It is called a prom. It snaps inside of the computer. If you turn the computer over and look at the back of it you will see 2 small screews that hold a small medal plate on the computer, remove that plate and you will see the prom. I think your computer is in behind the dash. Remove the inside of the glove box and look in and down to the right and you will see it.

It depends what context you mean. In computing terms it's Programmable Read Only Memory.
