<p class="MsoNormal">Section A - very sound. Thank dog good sense prevailed again regarding the OSI model question.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">B1c - odd. Can't you just say it has the features of the 2 previous answers? I can't see what the question is getting at.<o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">B4 + 5 - aha! They have finally asked students to write pseudocode! I knew that would come eventually. And it's worth beaucoup marks!<o:p></o:p></p>
