... has been installed on Mavericks HD? What does that mean?

Probably a name for his partition that he has installed Mavericks on.

He probably named the partition/drive he has Mavericks installed on Mavericks HD...

Edit: Ninjas
Yes, i named my partition Mavericks HD.

Someone said the system font is changed, is that true?

It has. The change is subtle, but beautiful.

The font has not changed it is still Lucida Grande.
 
Yeah but I mean the transparence overlay of the blue/green beach background in Mavericks.

So the desktop? Might be confusing, it wouldn't seem as though you were completely logged off. And I'm not sure I'd like to see the remnants of the last person to use the computer.

I don't know, the translucency is probably my least favorite thing about iOS 7 UI aside from the icons. Not sure I want it in OS X, reminds me of Vista. OS X used to be a lot more translucent back in the day and it wasn't the best.
 
Alright, two small things that may or may not be new in DP4. Let’s see. I haven’t seen these two things before anywhere anyway, so no matter:

First: You can now individually toggle which apps use iCloud document sync and which don’t. That way not all apps with iCloud document storage support are all forced to use it when you toggle document sync on and you can be more granular.

Second: Software update is gone from the preferences and replaced with the App Store.

both in previous DPs

Darn! I’ve been slacking. Sorry. (At least I can report that in some places where incorrect apostrophes were used before – ' – now correct ones are used – ’. But that might also have already been in previous DPs.)

Anybody ? :D Sure it says i cannot update, but it is a little anoying.
I thought I was the only one! The only permanent way I found to get rid of it was to delete iWork, reinstall them from the iWork 09 disk and then reinstall the updates.

It showed up this morning just like yours and when I attempt to update it says that it is already installed.

aah finally in dp4, the am and pm can be customised to whatever you want to call it. eg. am=sleep pm=party and it works!

I'm not gonna read this entire thread to see if this had been posted, but I just noticed that you can scroll through any app from mission control in Mavericks... what a silly feature :D

What does this exactly mean? You can scroll in apps like you're not in Mission Control even IN Mission Control or something else?
 
The system font has received subtle changes to make it Retina-compatible, or rather, better rendering on Retina displays. It is now called "Lucida Grande UI" (tentative).
 
So this means that you can't scroll in Mission Control to jump apart the grouped windows anymore?

I just tried this and no you can't. Maybe Apple should bind the pinch gesture to do that.

But you can just not group the application windows. I don't and find it much better.
 
Thanks. That's horrible. I use this feature every minute. :(

Well it's still beta so things can change. They just added the ability to scroll too, so I'm thinking it will change or they will add more gestures for ungrouping. Pinch gestures like I said make the most sense.

The grouping of application windows in Mission Control was a horrible feature anyway. I disabled this in the system preferences as soon as Mountain Lion came out.
