          Appeal No. 96-2661                                                          
          Application 08/177,975                                                      



                    On page 11 of the brief, Appellants argue that                    
          Teuling fails to teach a correction circuit means having a                  
          maximum of                                                                  
          linearity error of a substantially constant value over a range              
          of deflection frequencies of 30 kHz to 60 kHz.  We note Appel-              
          lants' claim 17 recites an "S-shape correction circuit means                
          providing a maximum of linearity error of a substantially                   
          constant value of less than 5% over a predetermined range of                
          horizontal deflection frequencies of 30 kHz to 60 kHz."                     
                    On pages 3 and 4 of the Examiner's answer, the                    
          Examiner states that Teuling teaches a picture display device               
          including an S-shape correction circuit wherein a control                   
          circuit 17 and 18 adjusts a supply voltage controlling the                  
          amplitude of the deflection current in accordance with a                    
          detected horizontal deflection frequency, and a control cir-                
          cuit 16 generates a correction current in response to the                   
          detected frequency wherein the deflection current and the                   
          correction current flow through the S-capacitor 12 in opposite              
          directions.  The first control circuit is adjusted such that                
          the amplitude of the deflection current is constant, while the              

                                          7
