          Appeal No. 2002-1922                                                        
          Application No. 09/163,724                                                  


          still lack a system and method whereby a decision is made whether           
          the web server site or the client computer will process a data              
          request from the client computer.  Tso is not concerned with the            
          process of determining which one of two sites will process a                
          request from the client computer 3 (Figure 2).  Instead, Tso                
          provides a remote scaling server 1 between the client computer 3            
          and the Internet 2 to scale any content from the Internet before            
          forwarding it to the requesting client computer.  According to Tso,         
          the scaling is performed by the remote scaling server to make the           
          download time of the content compatible with the operating speed of         
          the client computer (Abstract; column 4, lines 36 through 50).  In          
          summary, the obviousness rejection of claims 1 through 8, 10, 11            
          and 14 through 24 is reversed.
