Mac OS X Mountain Lion brings more than 200 new features to the table. Apple has done a good job of porting over core iOS features such as Notifications. However, the majority of the changes are hidden, we didn't notice any boost in performance and D...

New apps that match iOS counterparts, Extensive cloud, based sync features, Great new social sharing aspects, New Gaming Centre and AirPlay Mirroring, Well thought out security features
Trivial inconsistencies in the interface
Year after year, we're more and more impressed by OS X, and Mountain Lion continues Apple's tradition of building on its strengths, innovating wherever it needs to, yet preserving continuity wherever it can. There are interface niggles here, but very few...

Notifications, Low impact of Gatekeeper, Share sheets, Mission Control better, AirPlay mirroring
Awkward iCloud documents, iMessages needs work, Tab View too restricted, No custom Finder groups, Finder icons still mono
If there's one feature that makes it worth upgrading, it's Notification Center. At £13.99, Mountain Lion is a real bargain for that alone. The true cost might be higher if you have to upgrade from Leopard, or upgrade any of your applications to make them...

Implementation of key iOS features such as AirPlay Mirroring; iCloud support, Reminders and Messages service
Gatekeeper security could make life more difficult for developers, and limit software growth
Mac OS X 10.8 Mountain Lion was a solid update with a great collection of new features. It's shame to see that Messages still isn't as reliable as we'd like though. Some of the more extreme elements of the skeuomorphic interface are a little odd, and the...
We can conclude that the Mac OS X Mountain Lion 10.8 has good chances of dethroning Windows 8. The WWDC 2012 will reveal to the rest of the world not in the developers' universe what this OS is all about....
Notifications, AirPlay Mirroring, iCloud, Twitter, Sharing, new Safari
Dashboard Launchpad Mission Control still confusing, no Facebook or YouTube share support, AirPlay Mirroring good but not perfect
If you are looking for the almost crazy leap of faith that Microsoft has taken with Windows 8 you won’t get it here, however rest assured you are unlikely to be disappointed either...
