From what I remember, the key of that take over is, powerquest drive image which its stopping Norton ghost then from taking over that backup imagine thingy. Drive image is much much scaleable as compared to Norton ghost, but symatnec just took the whole thing down together with partition magic. Symantec took software like Seagate personal firewall, cleansweep and a lot which I can give at least 5 or more.
That reminds me how window-eyes is now... sorry to feel that way as a long term user since vocal eyes. -------------------- regards Thomas N.

There were also software companies who’s programs were thrown out by acquisitions. Take PowerQuest. They offered Partition Magic, but, when Symantec bought them out, they decided to drop that program Sent from Mail for Windows 10 From: Orlando Enrique Fiol Sent: Tuesday, May 16, 2017 4:52 PM To: Joseph Norton; Window-Eyes Discussion List Subject: RE: whole migrating situation >So, no monopoly here, yet. Just business. >The same thing happened in the Long Distance and local phone markets. >The AT field is no different, whether we like it or not. Your analogy is somewhat flawed because long distance telephone carriers provided the exact same service. Whether you used AT&T or MCI, back in the day, you didn't have to learn an entirely new conceptual layout just to get long distance service. If Dan and Doug simply wanted to retire from the accessibility market, they could have sold the company to an enterprising software developer with an interest in the blind accessibility market. Instead, the code now belongs to VFO, locked away from future development. That doesn't seem sensible, and I can't imagine how much VFO could have offered GWMicro to take its code off the market.
