OPINION
Turning first to the rejection of claims 1 through 30
under 35 U.S.C. § 103 in light of the teachings and showings
in Kawata alone, we reverse this rejection generally for the
reasons set forth by appellant at pages 8 and 9 of the brief.
Like appellant, we find no mention of write priorities in
storing results of an arithmetic/logic unit or the operation
of data selected by another circuit during Kawata's
instruction sequencing operations. The paragraph bridging
At page 2 of the answer the examiner has withdrawn a rejection of2
certain claims under the second paragraph of 35 U.S.C. § 112 as set forth in
the final rejection.

we have not considered it in our deliberations.
