          Application 08/387,504                                                      


                    distributing all of said non-shareable colorcell                  
                              requests to each participant in said                    
          conference               that supports said requests;                       
                    for any participants not supporting said requests,                
                         sending a No Operations request instead of said              
                         allocation requests;                                         

                    initializing said non-shareable colorcells for said               
                         requesting application for all participants                  
                              supporting said requests;                               
                    automatically sending an AllocColor or                            
          AllocNamedColor               order in place of an                          
          initialization request to               each participant not                
          supporting said requests; and                                               
                    displaying in a conference said non-shareable                     
                         colorcells in colors for each X server                       
          participant              that supports said requests, and                   
          displaying                    colorcells that are as close to               
          that requested by             said requesting application as                
          allowed by a                  display used by each said X                   
          server participant                 that does not support said               
          requests.                                                                   
               The Examiner relies on the following reference:                        
          Nye, "Xlib Programming Manual", The Definitive Guides to the X              
          Window System, vol. 1, pgs. 199-200, 206-207 O'Reilly & Assoc.              
          (1992).                                                                     
               Claim 1 stands rejected under 35 U.S.C. § 103 as being                 
          obvious over Nye.                                                           
               Rather than repeat the arguments of Appellants and the                 
          Examiner, we make reference to the brief and the answer for                 

                                         -3-
