                                  DECISION ON APPEAL                                  

               This is an appeal from the final rejection of claims 1                 
          through 13, all of the claims in the application.                           

               Appellant’s invention addresses a method of nonhorizontally            
          securing semiconductor devices to a carrier.  A basic                       
          understanding of the invention can be derived from a reading of             
          exemplary claims 1 and 10, respective copies of which appear in             
          the APPENDIX to the main brief filed February 23, 2004.
