Have you received GM's before on appleseed ?
Or in the case of ML have you been seeded with redemption codes ?
Good ?. In the past, GM builds weren't given to Appleseed invitees. That may be different now, especially as Apple has changed OS X development to mirror iOS.
It's illegal because the only people who are legally allowed to download the software are the ones who pay Apple for development privileges.
Anyone know what new gimmicks have been added?
Those that are assured of showing well in Apples television commercials?
A new slogan perhaps?

I hate to say it, but I'm a bit underwhelmed by Mountain Lion's new features. Watching the video, there's only a few of them that seemed useful to me, and nothing I've seen has excited me enough to anticipate the release. Maybe because I'm not a big social person, I don't use FaceBook at all and while I do use Twitter, I could live without it. Probably still a decent value at $20 but I can't remember ever being this apathetic about an OS X release.
Agree and valid concerns. "Snow Leopard" will [at the moment] hold as the better OS X variant for myself. However, compared to "Lion", "Mountain Lion" is definitely an improvement. Having been a developer for a long while, I was surprised engineers were responsive to many of the complaints/suggestions, especially with regards to "Mission Control"'s implementation of "Exposé".
Great! Will be installing this on my affordable external thunderbolt HDD which doesn't exist, till the quirks get worked out. Looking forward!
EDIT: Just a heads up, you can save some money getting the USB3 version of that drive, + the $99 thunderbolt adapter and Apple Thunderbolt Cable. It's all about the same price as the thunderbolt drive without the cable for some reason. This way you also have a USB3 adapter around for the future!

Tell me more about how you've never pirated anything in your life.
Huh? I was just answering the guy who said he didn't know it was illegal. I couldn't care less if people do it, I was just explaining something to somebody who didn't know. I'm sorry if that rustles your jimmies.
Oh? I thought Apple would send out an email inviting us to do that? (I'm ready to submit Battery Status 1.3 with some Mountain Lion exclusive features... I've been holding onto it for a few weeks just waiting... hoping Apple will put it up as a highlighted app if I have ML only features on the ML release date
)
