visual simulation and training.



In November 2006, we introduced our GeForce 8 series GPUs, which is based on a unified shader architecture. Instead of separate vertex and pixel shading processors, the GeForce 8800 has 128 stream processors, operating at 1.35GHz, that can process either vertex or pixel shader programs. GeForce 8800 is also the world’s first DX10 GPU. DX10 is a new Application Programming Interface, or API, for Microsoft Windows Vista, or Vista, and includes many new features. We also announced Compute Unified Device Architecture, or CUDA, a new mode of operation on GPUs where the computational power of the GPU can be utilized for computation-intensive applications. 



During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, we extended our leadership share position in the notebook GPU segment to 58% share, according to the Mercury Research Fourth Quarter 2006 PC Graphics Report. Notebook GPU revenue grew over 120% year-over-year. Additionally, the NVIDIA Quadro professional product line achieved record revenue with a 24% revenue increase from the fourth quarter fiscal 2006.

 

MCP Business

 

In February 2006, we completed our acquisition of ULi Electronics, Inc., or ULi, a core logic developer for the PC industry. This acquisition represents our ongoing investment in our platform solution strategy and has strengthened our sales, marketing, and customer engineering presence in Taiwan and China.



In March 2006, we shipped our first integrated graphics processor, or IGP, core-logic solution for Advanced Micro Devices, Inc., or AMD, based notebook PCs - the GeForce Go 6100 GPU and NVIDIA nForce Go 430 MCP. This core logic solution is the industry’s first high-definition IGP to provide hardware accelerated H.264 high-definition video playback.



In May 2006, we shipped our NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI, a high-performance motherboard solution for x86 PC platforms, including those based on socket AM2 processors by AMD. The NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI can utilize the power of up to four NVIDIA GeForce GPUs for HD gaming.



In June 2006, we introduced the NVIDIA nForce 590 SLI for Intel Core2 Duo and Core 2 Extreme CPUs.



In November 2006, we introduced our new NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI MCPs, which deliver performance for Intel Corporation, or Intel, CPUs and are designed specifically for enthusiasts with features such as SLI, Dual Net Gigabit Ethernet, and MediaShield RAID. The introduction of our NVIDIA nForce 680i SLI MCPs extends our nForce products for Intel Corporation, or Intel’s, CPUs with a performance platform for Intel’s Core2 Duo and new Core 2 Quad CPUs.

During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2007, the NVIDIA nForce MCP product line achieved record revenue for its tenth consecutive quarter. NVIDIA nForce MCP revenue grew 16% sequentially from the third quarter fiscal 2007 and 89% year-over-year. Our MCP growth was driven in part by increased adoption of our NVIDIA nForce notebook solutions by large PC manufacturers.



For fiscal 2008, our key growth objectives for our MCP Business are to deliver new motherboard products for the Intel CPU segment and maintain our leadership positions on AMD platforms. We believe that Intel-based
