I am doing the follow-up to my Linux Journal "A Temporary Internet Lounge"
article, and the question has come up, do I use "disk" and/or "disc". As in
"hard disk" or "compact disc", which is correct? Both? If both "disc" and
"disk" are correct, under conditions should I be using one or the other?

Similar story with "RAM disk" vs. "RAMdisk" vs. "Ramdisk" vs. "RAM disc" vs.
... again which is correct (if any)?
