              KRASS, Administrative Patent Judge.                                                                       

                                               DECISION ON APPEAL                                                       

                     This is a decision on appeal from the final rejection of claims 1, 2 and 4-181.                    
                     The invention is directed to maintaining a cache storage of a network device that                  
              services a plurality of client devices capable of downloading objects.  The invention                     
              seeks to prevent any single client device from essentially monopolizing the cache                         




                     1The appendix to the principal brief indicates no claim 2 but, rather, claims 1 and 3-18.          
                                                           1
