Genius vs Memorizer

This is between the Genius(RAM) and the Memorizer(ROM) capabilities in my opinion.

First, let me explain to things, RAM and ROM. RAM are like our memory used in our computer right now. It could be 2GB, 512MB or other amount. It determines the speed of our computer. It is also volatile. Volatile means it only store the data temporarily. When the power is cut off, the data will disappear too. It can get data, erase it and add new data to it.

While in the other hand, ROM is some sort like a hard disk. It is non-volatile where it can store data for a long period of time or so-called permanent storage. The amount of storing data is much larger than the RAM.

I look back to my past life and thinking about the historic people and nowadays people. I see physicist, doctor, lawyer, footballer and many more.

The genius in my opinion is the people with the high capacity of RAM. They can figure out something when they got a little bit knowledge about something. And their thinking is so fast that other people haven't think about the idea yet until now. But whenever the idea had been used and they change to other topic or if they are thinking about other things, the data which come out before has gone from their memory. I also think the CEO of a company probably is in this type.

The memorizer on the other hand has a large capacity of ROM. They can memorize so many data and they can remember it permanently. You don't need to ask them to revise or read it again as they have the capabilities of remembering the data for a long period. They are very good in remembering the information as they learn, compares to other people. I think the lawyer and the doctor is in this type.

What do you think?
