Ok, I admit it-- despite my sincere desire to the contrary, I am basically
computer illiterate.  I can use my PC alright, run things, etc--but alot
of the "middle level" (for lack of a better term--stuff you learn after
you get the basics down--although I'm not sure I am even that far) are
still eluding me.

I have a simple question for now.  If someone wouldn't mind taking a few 
minutes and e-mailing me an answer, I would be really grateful.  What is
disk caching?  I simply do not know.

Thanks in advance.
