          Application No. 08/700,133                                                  

               In light of the foregoing, we cannot sustain the examiner’s            
          section 103 rejection of claims 1 and 4 as being unpatentable               
          over Bagga in view of Kamio and further in view of Lee or Vachon.           
               The decision of the examiner is reversed.
