Thanks Priscilla, you caught an error that I had missed.

You're totally right when writing that this was a decent wrap-up.  With the
amount of travelling I do, it's easier to carry this study guide around
(appended with my notes that must take up any remaining space) then to lug
around Perlman, Halabi, Berkowitz, Doyle, Comer, Stevens, Clark, Raza,
Lammle, etc.... ;-)

Thanks again,
Sean
CCNP, CCDP, MCSE

PS - I never had an opportunity to thank you for the Top-Down book.  It
helped me immensely in acquiring my DP.  Thank you!!

What
