Sales of Nvidia's Grid, the company'scloud solution, were "up strongly" from the prior year's initialquarter of sales.

　　"First quarter results benefited fromgains in PC gaming and our continued progress in the data center andcloud," said Jen-Hsun Huang, president and chief executive officer ofNvidia, in a statement. "Nearly 600 enterprises worldwide are nowevaluating Grid, our virtual GPU server platform. VMware announced support forGrid to enable GPU-accelerated enterprise virtualization. And with IBM, Delland HP now selling our GPUs in their high-volume servers, we expect large-scaledata centers to be a significant source of growth."

　　Sales of the Tegra embedded chips, whereNvidia is trying to make inroads into the mobile and auto infotainmentbusiness, grew 35 percent, driven by growth in both areas, Nvidia said. Nvidiaalso earned $66 million through a patent license agreement with Intel.
