          Application 07/796,971                                                      


          Kitamura                      4,703,363          Oct. 27, 1987              
          Kojima                        5,036,405          July 30, 1991              
                                                                                     
          D. F. Bantz et al. (Bantz), “Anti-Aliasing Video Lookup Table,”             
          IBM Technical Disclosure Bulletin, Vol. 27, No 10B, March 1985,             
          pages 6339-6342.                                                            
          Claims 1-14 stand rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103.  As                       
          evidence of obviousness the examiner offers Kitamura in view of             
          Kojima with respect to claims 1, 4, 5, 8, 11 and 12, and adds               
          Bantz with respect to claims 2, 3, 6, 7, 9, 10, 13 and 14.                  
          Rather than repeat the arguments of appellant or the                        
          examiner, we make reference to the briefs and the answers for the           
          respective details thereof.                                                 
          OPINION                                                                     
          We have carefully considered the subject matter on                          
          appeal, the rejections advanced by the examiner and the evidence            
          of obviousness relied upon by the examiner as support for the               
          rejections.  We have, likewise, reviewed and taken into                     
          consideration, in reaching our decision, the appellant’s                    
          arguments set forth in the briefs along with the examiner's                 
          rationale in support of the rejections and arguments in rebuttal            
          set forth in the examiner's answers.                                        
          It is our view, after consideration of the record before                    
          us, that the collective evidence relied upon and the level of               
          skill in the particular art would not have suggested to one of              
                                          3
