Appeal No. 1998-3380
Application 08/542,591
to yet another type of peripheral device which uses power from
within a computer in certain situations. However, there is no
connection between Seigel and Kogure and Crowder. Therefore,
the suggested combination is improper.
Thus, we cannot sustain the obviousness rejection of
claims 2-5 and 16-19 over Crowder, Kogure and Seigel.
In summary, we have reverse the rejection under 35 U.S.C.
§ 103 of claims 1-11 and 13-19 over Crowder, Kogure and
Seigel, and of claim 12 over Crowder, Kogure, Seigel and
Warren.
