claims 13, 21 and 27 and would advise the Examiner to address
these claims accordingly. Finally, based on the Examiner's
discussion of the Moon et al. reference, we do not feel that the
Examiner fully appreciated what Moon teaches.
Specifically, Moon teaches "track identification information
contained in the C burst will be read by the microprocessor."
See column 17, lines 47-49, generally column 16, line 40 to
column 17, line 55 and Figure 9 of Moon. Moon also teaches,
[o]ne further object of the present invention is to
provide an improved servo control system and embedded
servo burst pattern for a positionable head disk data
storage file which provides absolute positional
information in each servo burst readable through the
same transducer head, data channel and data controller
which operates for user data, thereby facilitating and
vastly improving track seeking operations and
performance. See column 3, lines 58-66 of Moon.
However, in light of a careful review of Appellant's
specification and drawings, we cannot determine an answer to the
question, "what is a servo identification." As such, we are
unable to make a meaningful and proper comparison of Moon's
