Prajit S Nair:

I think it is an important conclusion that companies should spend wisely on R&D. It is one of the reasons why companies evaluate their core business from time to time. It helps in identifying the current and future requirements. Therefore, only those with a good vision and an open mind survive in future.

Scott Lind:

Very useful interactive data summary! - one small quibble - the units on R&D/employee are listed as MM but I believe you mean k.

John Lovitt:

Love the R&D graph-o-matic! Any chance of building in data for Australia?

Hugo Fragnitohugo@ifi.unicamp.br:

Very nice work. Congratulations!
Warning: data for compnies that are not among the top 100 of 2006 are not updated - seem to be frozen from past years. For example, JDS Uniphase's data are for 2001, not 2006.
