PROM is an acronym for Programmable Read Only Memory. This is the technology used for the "computer" in cars.

PROM Programmable read only memory
EPROM Eraseable Programmable Read Only Memory
EEPROM (some 4th gens have this). Electrically erasable programable read only memory (Flash).
ALL 3rd Gens run EPROMS. Proms is just so much easier to say <sigh>..
