Hey guys a newby here with a newby question. Something I've only heard from a family member over and over again but never heard it from anyone else.
Is a computers memory or memory cards something that you can only use once? I am being told that as you use a computer that you are slowly draining the memory from the computer once that's gone you have to replace the memory cards. He is telling me that my daughters computer that is 2 years old with 2gb memory is out of memory and needs new memory cards. I went online to shop fro memory cards and I see a lot of used memory cards being sold so if this is true why would anybody buy used cards if they could be used up. Thanks for the help.
 
Memory doesn't get "used up", no. Hard drive space (where everything is stored) can become full, but you can always delete files to make more room.
