I think he meant how do computers actually calucate them, because computers run solely on the basis of linearity, so for one to calculate an actual random number would be impossible.

I just had to since you all yell at me about stuff like this
" Hi!
I were just wondering... how does a computer compute a random number? that seems impossible to me."
Well, that depends on how the Motherboard chooses to generate one. Mine counts the number of electron running through pin 1 or something. It's wierd.
Craps, I'm an old man!

I think there was this guy who made a 600,000 bits random bits CD-ROM with a formula he created which creates truly random bits without any of that help.
At least, that's what I read in my maths book.
