Is a clean install worth it?

[nampramos]

When having the dmg of ML, can I do a clean install with it or do I need to install Lion first?

You can go right to ML.

It's not Windows, upgrading is fine!

I am not so sure everyone upgrades like you said , in my opinion most mac users I know do a new install or archive install , When Mountain lion eventually comes out I would recommend you do a archive and install or just a new install .

Apple removed the archive and install option in Snow Leopard and Lion. Presumably, they have done the same with Mountain Lion.
