          Appeal No. 2005-1722                                                         
          Application 10/420,901                                                       
          pages, is not a reason why a person skilled in the art would have            
          been motivated to modify Cameron in accordance with Gifford, and             
          no motivation exists in the references (Br20).                               
               The examiner seems to drop the inherency finding in the                 
          answer.  Nevertheless, we find that Cameron does not inherently              
          teach Web pages.  The fact that the network supports a TCP/IP                
          protocol (col. 5, lines 15-16) indicates that the network could              
          be the Internet, not that it must necessarily be the Internet.               
          The examiner finds that Cameron teaches multimedia input devices             
          at column 5, lines 18-19 (EA5; EA11).  The examiner finds that               
          Gifford teaches that Web pages provide multimedia capability and             
          concludes that it would have been obvious to implement the                   
          presentation pages taught by Cameron as Web pages (id.).  The                
          examiner notes that Cameron teaches that the window interfaces               
          are developed with an HTML-capable tool (id.).                               
               Appellant responds that there is no teaching to implement               
          the multimedia kiosks in Cameron using Web pages and there is no             
          motivation for the modification (RBr9).                                      
               Cameron discloses a computerized order entry system having a            
          network.  The network is not described to be the Internet, but               
          the fact that the network supports a TCP/IP protocol (col. 5,                
          lines 15-16) indicates that the network could be the Internet.               
          The system described in Cameron is for telemarketing in which the            
          user is taking an order over the phone from a customer for offers            
                                        - 5 -
