          Appeal No. 1996-2369                                      Page 14           
          Application No. 08/191,723                                                  




          detecting for logically converting the address so as to                     
          prevent the occurrence of the undesired display at an                       
          addressable position within the maximum effective display                   
          space of the display means.”  (Examiner’s Answer at 4.)                     


               The cited passage of the specification, however, merely                
          teaches that “address data not within the scope of effective                
          address are discriminated ... so that no undesired display can              
          occur within the effective display space.”  (Spec. at 4.)                   
          Neither the production of extended address data or the use of               
          the extended address data to convert address data is disclosed              
          therein.  There is no disclosure of therein.  Consequently,                 
          the passage neither teaches nor would have suggested the                    
          hardware conversion means and logic circuit means as claimed.               


               For the foregoing reasons, the examiner has not                        
          established a prima facie case of obviousness.  Therefore, we               
          reverse the rejection of claims 1, 3, and 5-8.
