GM is certainly coming. Developers must have the release version before anyone else to test their apps. And the retina MacBookPro is not running bugfree on the latest build. I guess they want their best MacBook to perfectly run ML.

My guess is today with iOS beta3, around the same time when beta2 came out (4hours from now).

All eyes in the Mac News sites today!

iOS 6 Beta 3 coming today at 10AM PST (1PM EST) according to this tweet. (Not Official) ...but it may be a safe bet

Then you have no clue how software development works. Apple will seed a final, locked in version to developers ahead of a consumer release in order to have apps tested on the shipping version of the OS to ensure everything is working correctly.
You are right but you know all thing change never stay the same.

I know this is random but. You know what I noticed that wasn't in DP4 and I hope they add in the GM. A wallpaper of an ACTUAL Mountain Lion. I saw the DP4 wallpapers but I noticed something....no wallpaper of an actual Mountain Lion. I really hope Apple adds that in the GM, then again maybe they always add the wallpaper of the cat that is named in the OS X title on the GM build. But yeaaah haha sooo sorry for this post (Mac Newbie)

Hmm don't know. I don't think you will be able to update DP4 to GM through the Appstore. But you'll never know, we'll see it with a couple of days i guess

Where exactly did you think the developers get Lion and ML from? They got it through the Mac App Store.

What i mean is DP4 is not upgradable to GM through the Appstore... its in the DP4 releasenotes. Lion DP was not upgradeable to GM.

What I meant is that you still get the GM seeds through the App store. The update log is there as well for the GM seed. So, it isn't ruled out just because somebody saw it as an update notification.

Thats not true. The first builds and the GM are obtained through the Dev portal.

The only thing that comes through the App store are updates.

You get the Redemption key through the dev portal then you download it from the App store.

You can't see it there until you redeem the key.

I guess the truth is we all really don't know. Prediction after prediction we all turn out to be wrong. They'll release it when they're ready:confused:

Hopefully we see it in the next few hours, some people have been saying we could see iOS6 Beta 3 today, I think we may see Mountain Lion Gold Master along with that..
