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:

Requires a second-generation Apple TV or later. Supports the following Mac models:

iMac (Mid 2011 or newer)

Mac mini (Mid 2011 or newer)

MacBook Air (Mid 2011 or newer)

MacBook Pro (Early 2011 or newer)

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.

    • Studio MDHR reveals Cuphead sequel and an 8-bit platformer spin-off

      By LoneWolfSL · Posted

      Studio MDHR reveals Cuphead sequel and an 8-bit platformer spin-off by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Studio MDHR has been rather silent about its next major gaming project since the release of Cuphead back in 2017. However, that ended today during the Summer Game Fest presentation, with the studio revealing not one but two project announcements. First, the studio confirmed that it is currently in the middle of developing a brand-new Cuphead game, bringing back the iconic characters for another adventure. Just like the last game, this is slated to be a fully hand-animated endeavor. This also means there isn't a release date attached to it yet. “Craftsmanship is at the heart of everything we do here at Studio MDHR,” says co-founder Chad Moldenhauer. “When it came time to peel back the curtain and share a little bit about what we’ve been up to, we couldn’t imagine a more fun way to do so than with today’s Special Bulletin. The studio is working on this new Cuphead with help from Toronto’s Stop Motion Department and Continue Agency. At the same time, Studio MDHR also revealed that another part of the team has been working on a different Cuphead installment. Dubbed the Mighty Cuphead Adventure, this is taking a different art direction to the original. "In true Studio MDHR fashion, this game goes beyond just taking inspiration from the classics of the 1980s… it is actually built with technology of the era," the studio explained. "That's right: Mighty Cuphead Adventure is programmed in assembly language and designed with the exacting specifications of the Sega Master System home gaming console in mind." Aside from releasing on PC and modern consoles, Mighty Cuphead Adventure will even be playable on the 1985-released Sega Master System. A release date has not been announced just yet.

      Any decent ITSM will A) have a web form that allows a user to raise a ticket, if you're writing an email you can write a ticket. B) Monitor a mailbox and auto-generate tickets based on inbound mails for those users that really can't get their heads around the concept that if you have an issue you go to support.mycompany.com and fill in the box. From your description you're having users email the desk, and then having a human read each one and manually raise a ticket on behalf of the user.

      Fixing things? Have you ever tried linux? Everything works out of the box nowadays in most common hardware. This includes Wifi and Bluetooth. If anything, if they return back to windows is because they haven't found an equivalent program which often used on windows.
