            Appeal No. 2005-2016                                                          Παγε 8                                   
            Application No. 09/682,988                                                                                             


            known in the art."  We note that claim 18 does not recite that the computer system is                                  
            programmed to perform the "inputting," "reviewing and determining" and "reporting"                                     
            steps.  Rather, claim 18 appears to require no more than a computer system capable of                                  
            performing these steps (i.e., capable of being programmed to perform these steps).                                     


                                               CONCLUSION                                                                          
                   To summarize, the decision of the examiner to reject claims 1-18 under                                          
            35 U.S.C. § 103 is reversed and the application is remanded for the purpose discussed                                  
            above.
