I've been running the GM since it was given to developers, it's very stable. I found a few issues with the new way Safari renders but it's very minimal.

So I guess you have an answer to your original question then ;).

He mean't at the WWDC 2012 conference. I think your replies were a little confusing, so he was questioning why they would announce it back in WWDC 2012. As far as them announcing the OS, they haven't posted a new GM build, so it's got to be close anyway. Just waiting for it to hit the AppStore, and I'll install.

I read that AirPlay Mirroring will only work on "Sandy Bridge" multicore processors. Where do I go to find out if my Mid-2009 MacBook Pro is sandy enough for that feature?

It's not, unfortunately. Basically, if you have an Intel HD 3000 GPU, you have a Sandy Bridge system.

Doh! That is a shame...

Here is the info:

So I just installed Mountain Lion GM and for some reason, I have no Facbeook sharing option. Twitter is there, but no Facebook. Anyone want to hazard a guess as to why? Seems very very strange.

Facebook integration is still developer only. It's apparently going to be added in the Fall.

Great! Thanks for the info. Was really confused about why it wasn't working because I swore i had heard about it.

Loving Mountain Lion so far. For those who are wondering, there are MAJOR speed improvements on Safari. The difference is night and day.

It isn't hard to reproduce at all, just pinch out with more than two tabs and you will see it on any page that isn't pure white.

Did you report it? If you have it installed is because you are either a dev or a beta tester right?

I reported a couple of bugs and they were all fixed

Really? That's sucks for me, because I don't use Twitter. Guess I'll upgrade and wait.

Anyone tried Dictation on Preview 4? It doesn't seem to work for me, I hear the tone, I talk, but nothing happens.

Does your Mac have a Microphone built in? Most Mac Mini's don't.

Didn't try it in DP4 but it works great in the GM.

    • Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Alien Isolation 2 will bring a new protagonist and setting, watch the reveal trailer here by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Only a few weeks ago, Sega and Creative Assembly dropped a teaser for a new Alien Isolation. Today at Summer Game Fest, Alien: Isolation 2 was officially announced with a new trailer while also confirming a whole lot of information about the setting of this survival horror project. Check out the reveal trailer above. Leaving behind the Sevastopol space station, the sequel will take players to a remote colony world. With a Xenomorph (or more) on the loose, players will be navigating both the surface of the weather-ravaged planet as well as "the claustrophobic confines of the Weyland-Yutani outpost of Kurosaki Station." Interestingly, Creative Assembly is leaving behind Amanda Ripley, the daughter of Alien's Ellen Ripley, as the protagonist too. While it hasn't confirmed a name yet, players will be taking the role of a new character for this new adventure. The setting is also being described as a new hunting ground for the Alien. This will have players improvising and developing new tools to aid in their survival and escape, all to avoid "cinema’s deadliest killer." "It has been over a decade since we created the original Alien: Isolation and I am so excited to show everyone the first glimpse of the sequel," says Al Hope, Creative Director at Creative Assembly. "Our dedicated Survival team at Creative Assembly has been working hard to create a new, evolved Isolation experience continuing the legacy of the Alien franchise, making the eponymous killer smarter, the environment harsher and the chance of survival slimmer." Promising the same deadly tension from the original from over a decade ago, Alien: Isolation 2 is in development for PC, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch 2, and PlayStation 5. A release date has not been announced yet.

      With how far Tim Apple's head has been up Trump's ass, there's no way this was done reluctantly.

      Like the article stated, it's written completely from scratch, unlike the umpteen Chromium clones. It got its start as the browser built-in to the also written-from-scratch SerenityOS.
    • CANT FIND SECURE BOOT ON BIOS

      By goretsky · Posted

      Hello, From looking at the screen shots in your motherboard's manual at https://endownload.colorful.cn/EnDownload/MotherBroard/2022/Intel 600/Manual/Intel 600 Series BIOS English/Intel 600 Series BIOS User Guide.pdf, you go to the ADVANCED option at the top of the BIOS (UEFI) menu, then select SECURITY in the list of options on the left.  From there  you can enable and set the Secure Boot mode. Regards, Aryeh Goretsky
