We work with a number of smaller firms and if, they have a product which meets our needs, and they are a small shop, then either we have a source code purchase option or source code escrow. If not, we won't do business with them.Does Quay,Inc deliver development services/applications to other customers, or is it a firm with in-house development for its own purposes?

"... They ne'er cared for us
yet: suffer us to famish, and their store-houses
crammed with grain; make edicts for usury, to
support usurers; repeal daily any wholesome act
established against the rich, and provide more
piercing statutes daily, to chain up and restrain
the poor. If the wars eat us not up, they will; and
there's all the love they bear us."
-- Shakespeare: Coriolanus, Act 1, scene 1
