How do you define memory?
If you mean, "knowledge of the past" then even the simple neural nets of today exhibit memory when they can recognize your face.
So where does this face recognizing neural net store information about eyes, ears, noses, etc? That information is part of the neural net but it's distributed across all the neurons.
This type of memory system is much closer to how memory in the real brain works.
