Thank you! I just want to add that the only thing I don't like about my first Mac...is Windows.

How long was the wait between Lion GM hitting developer.apple.com and hitting the App Store for retail release? I don't remember.

Yeah, hope he gives us the lowdown on refinements to LLVM compilation, tweaking to OpenGL/CL and the like.

Can you buy Mountain Lion on DVD? I only have a 50gb per month limit at the moment due to being a poor person.

I thought I remembered Siracusa realizing some time after his review came out that some of the defaults were changed between GM and release on Lion. Maybe I'm misremembering though.

If any of you are curious about compatibility with Mountain Lion, you might be happy to find this resource: http://roaringapps.com/apps:table It's not 100% complete, but it's better than nothing. edit: Could someone please recommend to me the best way to remove the location data from photos I import from my iPhone? I found PhotoStamper in the AppStore but It doesn't appear to handle multiple photos at once. I looked at Aperture, but the closet thing I found was the Automator 'Set IPTC Tags' action but that doesn't handle the GPS coordinates as far as I can see. decypher fucked around with this message at 07:18 on Jul 10, 2012 |

Interesting, Twitter is available in the final version but Facebook isn't. I wonder why they left it out? edit: okay, seems it's just me.. There's an option to add a Twitter account but no mention of facebook anywhere.. weird edit: Helps if you actually download the facebook SDK from the developer page..

Montalvo posted:How do LaTeX installations translate between versions of OS X? Assuming you're using MacTeX / TeX Live, the recently released 2012 version supports 10.8. Once you have that, upgrading your OS shouldn't cause any problems, since TeX uses the same binaries whether you're on SL, Lion, or ML.

I can see why Apple is only charging  for Mountain Lion. If it cost any more it would be a bit of a tough sell, especially if you're not a heavy iOS user or have a Mac older than a 2011 model. To expand a bit, the iCloud integration is really nice and further enhances the symbiotic relationship between Macs and iPads/iPhones, but if you're an Android user then you really don't care about Reminders or Notes syncing.In regards to the 2011 Mac stuff: you need a fairly new Mac if you want to use any of the nifty new features like PowerNap or AirPlay Mirroring. I assume Apple is using QuickSync (which is on Sandy Bridge and Ivy Bridge CPUs) for AirPlay Mirroring, but it would be nice if my 2010 iMac could do it at the expense of higher CPU usage. Here's hoping a .plist modification will make it possible without resorting to a complete third-party solution. Oddly enough, the feature that seems most-overlooked by previews (and Apple doesn't mention it because it seems like admitting a mistake) is the return of proper Expose. There's now a checkbox in Mission Control's preferences that removes window grouping by application and basically shows you every window at once, like Expose used to be.

Truth. If you don't have a very new Mac it's just an update of a few minor things.

drat, I guess I misread that fullscreen thing on Apple's Mountain Lion site. So, now you can fullscreen on external monitors, but it still renders the other display useless? I can't understand at all why Apple chooses to do fullscreen this way, it makes absolutely no sense.
