Can anyone advise me if I can upgrade my 10.8 Golden Master to official Mountain Lion purchased in App Store? Also are they any differences or improvements over this two versions?

You should get an email from Apple confirming it's the same product....

Thank you!

The final version of OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 was released today! Your 12A269 redemption code actually purchased the final version for you! The last build we seeded, 12A269, is identical to the build that is being sold in the Mac App Store today. There is no need for you to purchase another copy in the Mac App Store.


We would like to take this opportunity to sincerely thank you for participating in the seed process. Many bugs and issues have been discovered as a result of your efforts. You have contributed to the overall quality of our product.

GM and final release are indeed the very same build (not only do the build numbers match but an email I got earlier from Apple, as received by others, confirmed that too). The only thing I noticed was in my MAS, my ML in purchases changed this AM from OS X Mountain Lion GM Seed to just OS X Mountain Lion. It still shows my purchase date as July 10th though.
