Or just have the firm buy a Qt license first, before announcing the fork - it's 
perpetual itself; you just don't get support or updates beyond the 1 year mark.
Now, I am not a lawyer, so consult one first.

Qt Creator is pretty much on par with Visual Studios as an environment. It's far 
superior to most any other IDE out there.
That's not to say it's perfect or that it is on par in every way, but it's makes 
a very good challenger to the VS market.

Now, per VC++ - Qt Creator uses a far superior compiler. VS's C++ compiler is 
functional and improving, but no where near as good as GNU's g++, which 
underlies Qt Creator.
