          Appeal No. 1998-2538                                                        
          Application 08/434,336                                                      

               For the above-mentioned reasons and for those expressed by             
          appellants, it is our determination that the applied art does not           
          establish a prima facie case of obviousness within the meaning of           
          35 U.S.C. § 103.  As a consequence, we reverse the examiner’s               
          §103 rejection of claims 1-5 and 7-9.                                       
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.                              

                                   REVERSED
