Hi Keith and all.  Back from a nice 3 month LSL...

I see an error, but is it the same one you see, Keith?

Remember the question asks how long the project will take to complete 
(i.e. total real time from go to whoa, including weekends etc): it is 
not asking for the length of the critical path (which is 16 days).

Anyway, I believe its answer for the total real-time length is wrong (21 
days).  I work it out as 22.

I have issues with multichoice Q 8 which says a modem is an input and 
output device.  I maintain it is a communication device.

Oh, and "Pert" in Q19 should be "PERT".  Maybe they could borrow the 
unnecessary capital letter E,R and T used in "ROUTER" in Q8D  :-)

Short Answer Q5 - I'm wondering how a laptop in the city would connect 
to a LAN or the internet, since the answer does not refer to a wireless 
WAN internet connection such as iBurst (as opposed to a wireless LAN 
connection)

Cheerio
