Correct!!! - Take Note

use 2^n and forget the "-2" for determining the number of subnets.

For /27, n=3 and number of subnets is 8 (2^3=8). Following the post's example, the network numbers for the subnets would be the following:

192.168.1.0
192.168.1.32
192.168.1.64
192.168.1.96
192.168.1.128
192.168.1.160
192.168.1.192
192.168.1.224

Aside from that tweak, I agree with everyone else here - The post is a consice, straightforward intro to real subnetting. Nice Job.
