ARLINGTON, Texas - GameCom/Ferris Inc. (OTCBB:GAMZ) on Jan. 10 received a notice of allowance of claims made on its revised patent application for the company's Universe Control Board. The device speeds up the customization of a PC game into a coin-operated arcade program.

GameCom officials said the decision, rendered by the United States Patent & Trademark Office, was essential to the company's plans for marketing an interactive kiosk gaming platform. While company officials said GameCom/Ferris is focusing on security-related products in the wake of the Sept. 11 terrorist attacks, its gaming platform was still a part of its core business plan.

"This technology moves us far beyond the capabilities of any other public game purveyor that we know of," Bob Ferris, GameCom/Ferris president, said in a news release.
