Context: in emerging markets , such as ghana , india , nigeria and uganda , wireless networks tend to be significantly less advanced than those in the united states , and initial voice networks continue to be deployed in underdeveloped areas . a majority of consumers in these markets still utilize basic wireless services , predominantly on feature phones , while advanced device penetration remains low . in more developed urban locations within these markets , early-stage data network deployments are underway . carriers are focused on completing voice network build-outs while also investing in initial data networks as wireless data usage and smartphone penetration within their customer bases begin to accelerate . in markets with rapidly evolving network technology , such as south africa and most of the countries in latin america where we do business , initial voice networks , for the most part , have already been built out , and carriers are focused on 3g and 4g network build outs . consumers in these regions are increasingly adopting smartphones and other advanced devices , and , as a result , the usage of bandwidth-intensive mobile applications is growing materially . recent spectrum auctions in these rapidly evolving markets have allowed incumbent carriers to accelerate their data network deployments and have also enabled new entrants to begin initial investments in data networks . smartphone penetration and wireless data usage in these markets are growing rapidly , which typically requires that carriers continue to invest in their networks in order to maintain and augment their quality of service . finally , in markets with more mature network technology , such as germany and france , carriers are focused on deploying 4g data networks to account for rapidly increasing wireless data usage among their customer base . with higher smartphone and advanced device penetration and significantly higher per capita data usage , carrier investment in networks is focused on 4g coverage and capacity . we believe that the network technology migration we have seen in the united states , which has led to significantly denser networks and meaningful new business commencements for us over a number of years , will ultimately be replicated in our less advanced international markets . as a result , we expect to be able to leverage our extensive international portfolio of approximately 104470 communications sites and the relationships we have built with our carrier customers to drive sustainable , long-term growth . we have master lease agreements with certain of our tenants that provide for consistent , long-term revenue and reduce the likelihood of churn . our master lease agreements build and augment strong strategic partnerships with our tenants and have significantly reduced colocation cycle times , thereby providing our tenants with the ability to rapidly and efficiently deploy equipment on our sites . property

Context: in emerging markets , such as ghana , india , nigeria and uganda , wireless networks tend to be significantly less advanced than those in the united states , and initial voice networks continue to be deployed in underdeveloped areas . a majority of consumers in these markets still utilize basic wireless services , predominantly on feature phones , while advanced device penetration remains low . in more developed urban locations within these markets , early-stage data network deployments are underway . carriers are focused on completing voice network build-outs while also investing in initial data networks as wireless data usage and smartphone penetration within their customer bases begin to accelerate . in markets with rapidly evolving network technology , such as south africa and most of the countries in latin america where we do business , initial voice networks , for the most part , have already been built out , and carriers are focused on 3g and 4g network build outs . consumers in these regions are increasingly adopting smartphones and other advanced devices , and , as a result , the usage of bandwidth-intensive mobile applications is growing materially . recent spectrum auctions in these rapidly evolving markets have allowed incumbent carriers to accelerate their data network deployments and have also enabled new entrants to begin initial investments in data networks . smartphone penetration and wireless data usage in these markets are growing rapidly , which typically requires that carriers continue to invest in their networks in order to maintain and augment their quality of service . finally , in markets with more mature network technology , such as germany and france , carriers are focused on deploying 4g data networks to account for rapidly increasing wireless data usage among their customer base . with higher smartphone and advanced device penetration and significantly higher per capita data usage , carrier investment in networks is focused on 4g coverage and capacity . we believe that the network technology migration we have seen in the united states , which has led to significantly denser networks and meaningful new business commencements for us over a number of years , will ultimately be replicated in our less advanced international markets . as a result , we expect to be able to leverage our extensive international portfolio of approximately 104470 communications sites and the relationships we have built with our carrier customers to drive sustainable , long-term growth . we have master lease agreements with certain of our tenants that provide for consistent , long-term revenue and reduce the likelihood of churn . our master lease agreements build and augment strong strategic partnerships with our tenants and have significantly reduced colocation cycle times , thereby providing our tenants with the ability to rapidly and efficiently deploy equipment on our sites . property operations new site revenue growth . during the year ended december 31 , 2016 , we grew our portfolio of communications real estate through the acquisition and construction of approximately 45310 sites . in a majority of our asia , emea and latin america markets , the revenue generated from newly acquired or constructed sites resulted in increases in both tenant and pass-through revenues ( such as ground rent or power and fuel costs ) and expenses . we continue to evaluate opportunities to acquire communications real estate portfolios , both domestically and internationally , to determine whether they meet our risk-adjusted hurdle rates and whether we believe we can effectively integrate them into our existing portfolio. . <table class='wikitable'><tr><td>1</td><td>new sites

Context: our overall gross margin percentage decreased to 59.8% ( 59.8 % ) in 2013 from 62.1% ( 62.1 % ) in 2012 . the decrease in the gross margin percentage was primarily due to the gross margin percentage decrease in pccg . we derived most of our overall gross margin dollars in 2013 and 2012 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . our net revenue for 2012 , which included 52 weeks , decreased by $ 658 million , or 1% ( 1 % ) , compared to 2011 , which included 53 weeks . the pccg and dcg platform unit sales decreased 1% ( 1 % ) while average selling prices were unchanged . additionally , lower netbook platform unit sales and multi-comm average selling prices , primarily discrete modems , contributed to the decrease . these decreases were partially offset by our mcafee operating segment , which we acquired in the q1 2011 . mcafee contributed $ 469 million of additional revenue in 2012 compared to 2011 . our overall gross margin dollars for 2012 decreased by $ 606 million , or 2% ( 2 % ) , compared to 2011 . the decrease was due in large part to $ 494 million of excess capacity charges , as well as lower revenue from the pccg and dcg platform . to a lesser extent , approximately $ 390 million of higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform as well as lower netbook and multi-comm revenue contributed to the decrease . the decrease was partially offset by $ 643 million of lower factory start-up costs as we transition from our 22nm process technology to r&d of our next- generation 14nm process technology , as well as $ 422 million of charges recorded in 2011 to repair and replace materials and systems impacted by a design issue related to our intel ae 6 series express chipset family . the decrease was also partially offset by the two additional months of results from our acquisition of mcafee , which occurred on february 28 , 2011 , contributing approximately $ 334 million of additional gross margin dollars in 2012 compared to 2011 . the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles resulted in a $ 557 million reduction to our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 , compared to $ 482 million in 2011 , primarily due to acquisitions completed in q1 2011 . our overall gross margin percentage in 2012 was flat from 2011 as higher excess capacity charges and higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform were offset by lower factory start-up costs and no impact in 2012 for a design issue related to our intel 6 series express chipset family . we derived a substantial majority of our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 and 2011 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . pc client group the revenue and operating income for the pccg operating segment for each period were as follows: .

) , in 2013 compared to 2012 . pccg platform unit sales were down 3% ( 3 % ) primarily on softness in traditional pc demand during the first nine months of the year . the decrease in revenue was driven by lower notebook and desktop platform unit sales which were down 4% ( 4 % ) and 2% ( 2 % ) , respectively . pccg platform average selling prices were flat , with 6% ( 6 % ) higher desktop platform average selling prices offset by 4% ( 4 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices . operating income decreased by $ 1.3 billion , or 10% ( 10 % ) , in 2013 compared to 2012 , which was driven by $ 1.5 billion of lower gross margin , partially offset by $ 200 million of lower operating expenses . the decrease in gross margin was driven by $ 1.5 billion of higher factory start-up costs primarily on our next-generation 14nm process technology as well as lower pccg platform revenue . these decreases were partially offset by approximately $ 520 million of lower pccg platform unit costs , $ 260 million of lower excess capacity charges , and higher sell-through of previously non- qualified units . net revenue for the pccg operating segment decreased by $ 1.1 billion , or 3% ( 3 % ) , in 2012 compared to 2011 . pccg revenue was negatively impacted by the growth of tablets as these devices compete with pcs for consumer sales . platform average selling prices and unit sales decreased 2% ( 2 % ) and 1% ( 1 % ) , respectively . the decrease was driven by 6% ( 6 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices and 5% ( 5 % ) lower desktop platform unit sales . these

Context: our overall gross margin percentage decreased to 59.8% ( 59.8 % ) in 2013 from 62.1% ( 62.1 % ) in 2012 . the decrease in the gross margin percentage was primarily due to the gross margin percentage decrease in pccg . we derived most of our overall gross margin dollars in 2013 and 2012 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . our net revenue for 2012 , which included 52 weeks , decreased by $ 658 million , or 1% ( 1 % ) , compared to 2011 , which included 53 weeks . the pccg and dcg platform unit sales decreased 1% ( 1 % ) while average selling prices were unchanged . additionally , lower netbook platform unit sales and multi-comm average selling prices , primarily discrete modems , contributed to the decrease . these decreases were partially offset by our mcafee operating segment , which we acquired in the q1 2011 . mcafee contributed $ 469 million of additional revenue in 2012 compared to 2011 . our overall gross margin dollars for 2012 decreased by $ 606 million , or 2% ( 2 % ) , compared to 2011 . the decrease was due in large part to $ 494 million of excess capacity charges , as well as lower revenue from the pccg and dcg platform . to a lesser extent , approximately $ 390 million of higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform as well as lower netbook and multi-comm revenue contributed to the decrease . the decrease was partially offset by $ 643 million of lower factory start-up costs as we transition from our 22nm process technology to r&d of our next- generation 14nm process technology , as well as $ 422 million of charges recorded in 2011 to repair and replace materials and systems impacted by a design issue related to our intel ae 6 series express chipset family . the decrease was also partially offset by the two additional months of results from our acquisition of mcafee , which occurred on february 28 , 2011 , contributing approximately $ 334 million of additional gross margin dollars in 2012 compared to 2011 . the amortization of acquisition-related intangibles resulted in a $ 557 million reduction to our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 , compared to $ 482 million in 2011 , primarily due to acquisitions completed in q1 2011 . our overall gross margin percentage in 2012 was flat from 2011 as higher excess capacity charges and higher unit costs on the pccg and dcg platform were offset by lower factory start-up costs and no impact in 2012 for a design issue related to our intel 6 series express chipset family . we derived a substantial majority of our overall gross margin dollars in 2012 and 2011 from the sale of platforms in the pccg and dcg operating segments . pc client group the revenue and operating income for the pccg operating segment for each period were as follows: .

) , in 2013 compared to 2012 . pccg platform unit sales were down 3% ( 3 % ) primarily on softness in traditional pc demand during the first nine months of the year . the decrease in revenue was driven by lower notebook and desktop platform unit sales which were down 4% ( 4 % ) and 2% ( 2 % ) , respectively . pccg platform average selling prices were flat , with 6% ( 6 % ) higher desktop platform average selling prices offset by 4% ( 4 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices . operating income decreased by $ 1.3 billion , or 10% ( 10 % ) , in 2013 compared to 2012 , which was driven by $ 1.5 billion of lower gross margin , partially offset by $ 200 million of lower operating expenses . the decrease in gross margin was driven by $ 1.5 billion of higher factory start-up costs primarily on our next-generation 14nm process technology as well as lower pccg platform revenue . these decreases were partially offset by approximately $ 520 million of lower pccg platform unit costs , $ 260 million of lower excess capacity charges , and higher sell-through of previously non- qualified units . net revenue for the pccg operating segment decreased by $ 1.1 billion , or 3% ( 3 % ) , in 2012 compared to 2011 . pccg revenue was negatively impacted by the growth of tablets as these devices compete with pcs for consumer sales . platform average selling prices and unit sales decreased 2% ( 2 % ) and 1% ( 1 % ) , respectively . the decrease was driven by 6% ( 6 % ) lower notebook platform average selling prices and 5% ( 5 % ) lower desktop platform unit sales . these

Context: note 9 . retirement plan we maintain a defined contribution pension plan covering full-time shoreside employees who have completed the minimum period of continuous service . annual

tax on income from the international opera- tion of ships pursuant to section 883 of the internal revenue code . income tax expense related to our remaining subsidiaries was not significant for the years ended december 31 , 2006 , 2005 and 2004 . final regulations under section 883 were published on august 26 , 2003 , and were effective for the year ended december 31 , 2005 . these regulations confirmed that we qualify for the exemption provid- ed by section 883 , but also narrowed the scope of activities which are considered by the internal revenue service to be incidental to the international operation of ships . the activities listed in the regula- tions as not being incidental to the international operation of ships include income from the sale of air and other transportation such as transfers , shore excursions and pre and post cruise tours . to the extent the income from such activities is earned from sources within the united states , such income will be subject to united states taxa- tion . the application of these new regulations reduced our net income for the years ended december 31 , 2006 and december 31 , 2005 by approximately $ 6.3 million and $

transportation such as transfers , shore excursions and pre and post cruise tours . to the extent the income from such activities is earned from sources within the united states , such income will be
