Well, /dev/random uses the hardware in the computer to generate random numbers, like from the harddrive, cpu temp, network etc. (if I understand it correctly) while /dev/urandom uses matmatically forumlas to generate random number. Therefor /dev/random can run out of random number while /dev/urandom always will be able to produce more.
I do not however know the defintion of what a pseudo random generator is so...
