          Appeal No. 96-1539                                                          
          Application No. 08/128,456                                                  

          to anything in Albright which teaches this limitation, we will              
          not sustain the rejection of claims 1 and 6 under 35 U.S.C. §               
          102(b) as anticipated by Albright.                                          
               Since Binkley is relied on, in the rejection of claims 2               
          through 5 and 7 through 9, merely for the teaching of an                    
          input/output queue and Binkley does not provide for the                     
          deficiencies noted supra with regard to Albright, we also will              
          not sustain the rejection of the dependent claims under 35                  
          U.S.C.  § 103 as being unpatentable over Albright in view of                
          Binkley.                                                                    
               The examiner’s decision rejecting claims 1 and 6 under 35              
          U.S.C. § 102(b) and (e) and claims 2 through 5 and 7 through 9              
          under 35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed.                                          
                                      REVERSED
