My favorite "little" things:
1. Holding down Option in the File menu turns Duplicate into Save As.
2. Resume is disabled by default.
3. Option to ungroup application windows when in Mission Control.
4. Animations and overall feel are MUCH smoother than OS X Lion.
5. Apple has made it harder to remove items from the Dock accidentally.

Steve Jobs was right about the file system in some respects. It makes sense that you open Mail to read email, you open iPhoto to browse photos, or iTunes for music.
But for Documents, the distinction isn't always that clear. Did I write that letter in TextEdit or Pages? Was that slideshow a Keynote document or a PDF? Or, perhaps I want to manage my documents by project instead of file type - or what usually happens is I want to seamlessly browse documents of different file types (pdfs, keynotes, pages, even pictures) related to a single project, all in one place, without having to toggle between apps.
It also now supports two-finger swipe left or right for browsing the history of the App Store
When you rollover on scrollbars they appear bigger, this is system wide!
In Mail when you click the top bar of the mail column it scrolls to top!
Safari has a completely redesigned web inspector. Along with dimensions for divs and etc.
Date & Time Preferences has a redesigned calendar
When you download from safari the icon now flies to the download folder and with a progress bar and both on the main folder and on the icon while you can cancel the download right from the files icon with the X mark!
Trash got a redesigned icon.
The running apps light indicator is now positioned at the front edge of the dock.

I think they slightly re-arranged the printing options in preview.
Unfortunately, there are still no options to print specific pages (with comma seperation).

Isn't that the idea behind "Documents in the Cloud"? Every app that implements it will show all your documents right in the app. I'm not saying it's perfect, I just think that's Apple's thinking/idea.
Early "08" 20-inch iMac, 2.66 GHz Intel Core 2 Duo maxed at 4GB RAM and running 10.7.4 with same question,.....
When I switched over to Lion I noticed it took half my memory (2GB) just to run without any apps launched.
Guys this is all the little things in Mountain Lion, not "will Mountain Lion run fine for my mac" thread. I'm running ML on my early 2008 macbook pro with 4GB ram just fine, better than Lion in fact.
Now to go back to the topic, in Mail, when you are scrolling the message list, you can go back to the top of the list instantly by double clicking the "sort by" bar. It's similar to how Safari in iOS scrolls to the top when you tap the menu bar.

Late '08 MBP (check my sig if you want more deets), I'm updating right now. I'll let you guys know how it goes. I've got more RAM than you, but I'll check if that 2GB worth of RAM problem is something my MBP experiences too.
Thanks for making this thread I really appreciate looking at all the information throughout the last few months
I use Virtual Box from Oracle - it's Free, just as good (if not better than the paid for offerings) and the latest version works under Mountain Lion too.
I noticed that when you open notification center while on the desktop, the wallpaper image sitting behind the menu bar (when the menu bar is transparent) get's stretched out to preserve the look of the transparent menu bar. I only noticed this because with the default ML wallpaper, a few stars get stretched out and its easy to see (I was actually trying to figure out what it was for a while), whereas other wallpapers, I wouldn't have noticed.
My Firewall was still on after an upgrade to ML so I guess this blows your theory out of the water? Unless you were talking about a clean install and not an upgrade...
