          Appeal No. 1999-0880                                                        
          Application No. 08/700,610                                                  

          control pointer 23 of Figure 2.  Accordingly, although, in our              
          view, the decision comes down to one word, viz., “load,”                    
          appearing in a box in the flow diagram of Figure 3, that is                 
          enough to establish adequate support for the now claimed                    
          “processor controlled code location pointer” and                            
          “software controlled code location pointer” as it shows that                
          the inventors had possession of a processor controlled code                 
          location pointer, in addition to the mechanical code location               
          pointer 23 of Figure 2, at the time the application was                     
          originally filed.  Thus, we will reverse the rejections of                  
          claims 20 through 45 under 35 U.S.C. § 251 and 35 U.S.C. §                  
          112, first paragraph.                                                       
               We have reversed all outstanding rejections of the                     
          instant claims.  Accordingly, the examiner’s decision is                    
          reversed.                                                                   
                                      REVERSED
