          Appeal No. 2002-2077                                                        
          Application No. 09/273,363                                                  

          is operating in the self-checkout mode from the central                     
          processor.  There is no element in Humble which performs like the           
          emulator module of the claimed invention.                                   
          Therefore, we do not sustain the examiner’s rejection of                    
          any of the claims on appeal.  Accordingly, the decision of the              
          examiner rejecting claims 1-13 is reversed.
