...goes well, the deal could propel Tech Mahindra into the top tier in Indian software services. Satyam's client base, which includes Cisco Systems and Nestle SA, would reduce the company's heavy reliance on British Telecom, its biggest customer. The markets gave the purchase a thumbs-up. Tech Mahindra shares were up 12% at the end of trading Monday, while Satyam shares were up 3%. Also applauding the deal were India's business groups.

The cost is underwritten by many of the technology and health industry's biggest names - Cisco, Dell, Google, Microsoft, Aetna and Wellpoint. (The upside for Allscripts is potential future sales of its full medical record-keeping software to early adopters of the e-prescribing program.) But even freebies aren't enough to get doctors to change their paper-scribbling ways. Many still find old-fashioned pen and pad to be more efficient. A recent study found...
