Originally this referred to a communication between a modem and a remote system, where characters were sent both ways over the phone line so that they could be accurately displayed on a terminal. Now full duplex has taken on the meaning that signals can be sent in both directions at the same time, such as in network communications.

This is a memory device. Once data is written to a PROM it is there forever, unlike with an EPROM. A PROM is also a curious high school ritual involving strangely colored dresses, tuxedos, and sometimes limousines, unconsciously mirroring the wedding rituals most of its participants will undergo at some point in the following 10-15 years.
