A nurse took the tired, anxious serviceman to the bedside.
After the rise and fall in share market in USA, Apple becomes the biggest empire in the USA beating Exxon Mobil (which has been acquiring the crown of being biggest empire in USA since 2005).
Of course Bill Gate's empire had for many years a license to print money because of its dominance of the market for PC operating systems and Office software. But that dominance opened up opportunities for countless companies, large and small, to provide hardware, software and services that meshed with the Microsoft products. Anyone c
ould make and sell a PC, for example, whereas only Apple can make a Mac. Anyone could develop software to run under Windows, but only software approved by Apple can run on its i-Devices – which is why the software giant Adobe is so threatened by having its Flash animation program banned by Steve Jobs. In addition, Apple takes a 30% cut on every “approved” program that is sold. Microsoft, in contrast, was never able to levy a tax on developers selling Windows-compatible software. So while Bill Gates and co prospered mightily from their dominance of the market, other people prospered too – to the point where Microsoft claims that for every dollar it makes from Windows 7, other companies earn $18.52, and predicts that this ecosystem will sell “more than $320bn in products and services revolving around Windows 7″.
All goes to show that, in the Apple economy, only Apple gets really rich. Watch out!!!!!!!!!!!!!

| Feature | Description |
|---|---|
| Intuitive user Interface | The user interface is based on a stage, timeline, and panels for elements and properties. It’s influenced by our customers’ favorite features and functionality in class-leading tools like After Effects and Flash Professional, but innovates in its ease of use. Animations and timing can be controlled on a WebKit-based stage, or via precise property adjustments directly on the timeline. You can also make quick edits on individual or multiple objects. |
| Visually author animated content | Create new compositions from scratch using basic HTML building blocks, text, and imported web graphics. Manipulate objects with an array of transformation and styling options which Edge natively applies to our jQuery-based animation framework. |
| Add motion to existing HTML content | Add motion elements to existing HTML web documents. Edge stores all of its animation in a separate JavaScript file that cleanly distinguishes the original HTML from Edge’s animation code. Edge makes minimal, non-intrusive changes to the HTML code to reference the JavaScript and CSS files it creates. |
| Import web graphics files | Import existing web graphics such as SVG, JPG, PNG, and GIF files. |
| Standards-based output | Edge reads and writes HTML, CSS and JavaScript files natively. Animated content produced in Edge is expressed in a JavaScript Object Notation (JSON) data structure that preserves the CSS-based layout. JSON is a formatting style for JavaScript that is easily readable, and allows more flexibility to work with the document and animated content independently. |
| Reliable content on desktops and devices | Animated content created with Edge is designed and tested to work reliably on the iOS and Android platforms, WebKit-enabled devices, and popular desktop browsers such as Firefox, Chrome, Safari, and Internet Explorer 9. |
