    Just curious on this with regard to a recent thread in security.

    Company A buys company B .
    Company B has a unique technical product with a lot of end users.
    Is company A legally obliged to supply /support that product for any set period of time?

    I'd imagine they would be responsable for any pre-existing support contracts if the company is being kept as a going concern but i could be wrong

    It wouldn't be quite like that. The company is the manufacturer. The end user would have maintenance contracts with the installers not them.
