Our reviewing court has held that a “programmed machine is structurally different from a machine without that program.” In re Noll, 545 F.2d 141, 149 (CCPA 1976); see also In re Bernhart, 417 F.2d 1395, 1399—1400 (CCPA 1969) (“[I]f a machine is programmed in a certain new and unobvious way, it is physically different from the machine without that program; its memory elements are differently arranged. The fact that these physical changes are invisible to the eye should not tempt us to conclude that the machine has not been changed.”).
