Technology Stocks : Rambus (RMBS) - Eagle or Penguin -- Ignore unavailable to you. Want to Upgrade?

This morning I gave up on SMOD (bought back just a few weeks ago so didnt lose much) and bought (only 30 shares) Rambus. What great news.
I bought at $50 1/2 but from the looks of the years high that isnt so bad.
So, is it a long hold (several years) or a short hold (several weeks)?
Any opinions?

I apologize for being dense, but could you please call out what each of these columns means? I understand year, but after that I can't make sense of the column headings coupled with the column numbers.

Thanks!
