          Appeal No. 1999-2418                                                        
          Application No. 08/737,510                                                  


               Thus, we are not convinced, by the examiner’s rationale,               
          that the instant claimed subject matter would have been                     
          obvious, within the meaning of 35 U.S.C. 103, based on the                  
          evidence provided by Urban and Abo.                                         
               The examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1-4 under 35                  
          U.S.C. 103 is reversed.                                                     


                                      REVERSED
