...like a better travel laptop than my 17-in. MacBook Pro, and the 2530p has a 12.1-in. screen (as measured diagonally) and a total weight starting at only 3.2 lb., ideal for Virgin America's economy seats. As with most HP business-class computers, you get a slate of useful little features, like a teeny LED night-light at the top of the screen that pops out to illuminate your keyboard, minimizing spousal irritation.

To be sure, when they do hit the jackpot, the payoff can be enormous: Roche's pharmaceutical division alone raked in more than $30 billion in sales last year. Its total sales reached $43 billion, generating profits of $10.5 billion. Nonetheless, the days of this trial-and-error approach may soon be over. All of Big Pharma is feeling pressure--from Wall Street, regulators and customers--to take a smarter path to discovery for that next blockbuster drug. And who wins...
