ON BRIEF

Before HAIRSTON, JERRY SMITH, and DIXON, Administrative Patent Judges.
HAIRSTON, Administrative Patent Judge.
DECISION ON APPEAL
This is an appeal1 from the final rejection of claims 14 through 21.
1 In a prior appeal in this application, the Board in a decision dated July 20, 1998 affirmed
the decision of the examiner rejecting claims 1 through 13 under 35 U.S.C. § 103 based upon the
teachings of U.S. Patent No. 5,363,507 to Nakayama et al. In the earlier decision, the Board
indicated (Decision, pages 2 and 3) that “any of the computers shown in Nakayama’s Figure 1
can be considered a ‘host’” computer, and that “[a]ny one of those computers is operative to
generate a common image for display and modification by all users.”
