          Appeal No. 98-2888                                                          
          Application No. 29/044,927                                                  


          configuration, which is not even shown in the DuBe design,                  
          since DuBe has no comparable component.  Finally, we do not                 
          agree with the examiner that the square aperture with central               
          slit provided on the distal end of the disk holder is a de                  
          minimis difference which does not affect the overall                        
          appearance of the design (see Figure 2).                                    
               The rejection is not sustained.
