          Appeal No. 95-4151                                                          
          Application 08/158,342                                                      


          article is "a software developer's vision of the future of                  
          virtual reality."  On page 79, Wright states that the recent                
          demonstrations of virtual reality only give a small glimpse of              
          the potential of future developments of the technology.                     
          Wright then proceeds to describe what he envisions as possible              
          future developments using the technology.  On page 81, Wright               
          speculates that future development of the technology could be               
          used to provide familiar tools such as a calendar, an                       
          appointment book, a journal, a thesaurus, a telephone book, a               
          journal, a map or an instruction manual.  Wright states only                
          in one sentence that virtual reality could be used to control               
          and present complex hyper media consisting of mixed text,                   
          graphics, videodisk images                                                  
          and sound.  Wright further speculates that virtual realities                
          could be use for simulating structure of the human body or                  
          virtual realities could be use to provide speaking articles                 
          that                                                                        




          provide you information to suit your learning style.  Wright                
          even speculates that virtual reality could be use for                       
                                          8
