                Application 10/131,049                                                                                 
                                                                                                                      
                                                   DISCUSSION                                                          
                Drawing correction                                                                                     
                       In addition to the drawings changes in the Request for Approval of                              
                Drawing Changes, we note that in Step S224 of Figure 5A, "GREEK" should                                
                be "GREEN."                                                                                            

                Claim 58                                                                                               
                       Issues                                                                                          
                       Based on the contentions of Appellant, the issues are whether Arai                              
                discloses or would have suggested to one of ordinary skill in the art the                              
                following limitations of claim 58: (1) "a microcomputer connected to said                              
                computer for detecting at least one synchronous signal output from said                                
                computer to said display monitor"; (2) "said microcomputer generating . . .                            
                reference . . . vertical synchronous signals when at least one synchronous                             
                signal is not detected from said computer"; (3) "said microcomputer                                    
                providing . . . said . . . reference . . . vertical synchronous signals to said                        
                synchronous signal processor"; and (4) a "synchronous signal processor                                 
                outputting processed vertical and horizontal synchronous signals to said video                         
                signal processor."                                                                                     

                       Facts                                                                                           
                       The four underlying factual inquiries of obviousness are: (1) the scope                         
                and content of the prior art; (2) the differences between the subject matter of                        

                                                         - 4 -
