| Nice update Apple and worth the wait. Safari is using a lot less ram, Intel HD 4000 graphics are now fantastic and the white washout is gone. Mountain Lion is nice and stable.... I am no longer missing Snow Leopard. |

Yes. Would you like instructions on how to use Google to research and decide for yourself how different they are? _________________ 2.0 GHz i7 Mini 8 GB RAM, OWC Merc Extreme SSD & Samsung Spinpoint

Mountain Lion is a major update to Lion. I mentioned in the other thread that Snow Leopard is my favourite OS, but there is no way I would choose Lion over Mountain Lion.
http://www.apple.com/ca/osx/whats-new/features.html
Lion was premature and it will remain that way. It would be similar to being stuck with Vista on a PC.
I realize that you don't really have anything to compare it to, so you'll have to trust me.
That being said World Wide Developers Conference is coming up in June and I imagine we will see another OS in July. If cash is limited, you might want to wait until July for the next OS, if not, I'd upgrade now. Security and stability updates alone make it worthwhile, not to mention being able to have fun by keeping current. You seem to be using your computer for hobby, so why not enjoy it more, while it's still new. |

Perhaps, but only when it comes to the most basic of questions such as the ones that you usually ask. You know the ones, they almost always have absolutely nothing to do with the thread at hand.
Reminds me of a person that walks out of the darkness stares out into the abyss and randomly starts jibber jabbering just to hear the sound of their own voice; strange. You don't add to a discussion or to a question. No, alas, your purpose seems to derail and ask questions that you could answer simply yourself if you chose. You are a serial poster and quoter of nothing that actually adds to helping others; 100% filler, no killer.
I dare you to add to a thread with something helpful other than an off-topic question or random comment. I double dog dare you.
But seriously and as the saint I am, if you need help with Google, I am certain that you can be helped. Just ask. _________________ 2.0 GHz i7 Mini 8 GB RAM, OWC Merc Extreme SSD & Samsung Spinpoint

Nope. A political atheist. While I seem to have hit a nerve with you and your posting for postings sake I hold no ill will to you. But you should take some time and look at the threads you've posted in, the topics, the themes and your responses. Incongruity.
This thread for example is a good one. Your posts have been recognized as off-topic, and being a saint I cannot lie.
Sorry to the OP for hijacking, I agree though, 10.8.3 is a nice one and seems to have fixed a few of the bugs that were a bit bothersome _________________ 2.0 GHz i7 Mini 8 GB RAM, OWC Merc Extreme SSD & Samsung Spinpoint
