Your question makes absolutely no sense in the context of this
discussion. NVDA's business model has no correlation to VFO's ownership
of Window-Eyes.

then how does NVDA work the way it does? and how is it so successful?

Your board of directors would not allow you to spend a pile of money
to purchase your competitor and then allow you to put that competitor
right back in business against you. And no business owner with a drop
of sense would want to do it anyway. Businesses like Apple, google,
and Microsoft buy a heap of smaller businesses every year. They don't
do so to turn around and give them away. FS is no doubt picking
through the Window-Eyes code looking for ways to improve JAWS or
features to add.

if I no longer cared about the product then yes I probably would turn
around and just open source it. if the product was no longer
supported by my business I'd just tell people do what you want with
it, we moved on. take it apart, open source it, whatever. we do not
care.

No. Think about it. If you were in business and bought your number
one competitor would you turn around and give it away for someone
else to continue its development?

hi
Is there any possibility since window eyes is no longer supported
to get the window-eyes source code make it open source and put it
up on the github website? then other developers could keep
developing window eyes.
