Application 09/318,447
information.” Claims 59, 89, 101 and others called for “consolidating
multiple orders placed … into a single order.” On 12/24/02, an amendment
was filed canceling claims 49-107 and adding claims 108-183 – many of
which are now under appeal, including claims 108, 151, and 176 which
provide that the user does not need to log in to the computer to order an item
and claim 126 which provides that the server computer automatically
combines orders into a single order.
The original claims do not mention providing that the user does not
need to log in to the computer to order an item or providing that the server
computer automatically combines orders into a single order as now claimed
in claims 108, 151, and 176, and 126, respectively.
Turning to the Specification, we find only the following relevant

purchaser to perform a “login” so that the identity of the purchaser can
be verified before shipping information is viewed or modified.” P.
7:16-18.
• “The server system may require the purchases [sic] to “login”
so that the identify [sic] of the purchaser can be verified before the

order for shipping.” P. 8:24-25.
