We are not persuaded by the Examiner's assertion of "design choice" because Appellant has disclosed that the claimed design acheived desired different functions different from the prior art.  See In re Gal, 980 F.2d 717, 719 (Fed. Cir. 1992); see also In re Chu, 66 F.3d 292, 299 (Fed. Cir. 1995) (holding that a claimed feature was not a matter of design choice where there was no suggestion or teaching to modify the prior art in this manner and applicant introduced evidence showing the benefits of the claimed feature).

Chu, In re, 66 F.3d 292, 36 USPQ2d 1089 (Fed. Cir. 1995) 211.05 716.02(f) 1504.20 2145 ,
