Ramble a bit – article in memory or nothing in memory? (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

roam

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'ramble' is the definition.
(I know that ramble can be written as roam)

'nothing in memory?' is the wordplay.
'nothing' becomes 'O' (O resembles 0).
'in' indicates putting letters inside.
'memory?' becomes 'RAM' (Random Access Memory on a computer).
'o' going inside 'ram' is 'ROAM'.

'a bit article in memory or' acts as a link.
This may not be correct. Some or all of it may belong to another bit of the clue.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for roam that I've seen before include "range" , "Stray" , "go on walkabout" , "wander around" , "Travel widely" .)
