Has the Trash can icon changed in Mountain Lion? I know the Dock has different perspective/reflections, but the icon itself looks different. It also doesn't seem to get "fat" anymore when you add things into it.

How come can I visit my user folders on my Lion partition, when I?m in Mountain Lion, without having to enter ANY password ? Security issue much ???

..

Like with any operating system ever made?

Try plugging NTFS drives into a Linux, behold - you can traverse the directory structure at will. Same for OSX, Linux, BSD (HFS/Ext3/4/BFS/XFS et al) - same for every filesystem ever made that isn't encrypted.

That's why your OS of choice has an option to encrypt the contents, for Windows there's Bitlocker, for OS X there's Filevault and Linux offers various encryption techniques and for universal compatibility TrueCrypt offers super tight encryption.

New update for DP via App Store - 1.08Gb - downloading now.

Edit: feels a bit faster if that could be possible :)

It probably fixes that Safari bug when you type in letters it didn't like :rofl:, along with other minor fixes.

Just applied the update, didn't actually know what it changed or fixed but whatever :p

I do really like the Mountain Lion DP so far, no compatibility issues with any of the software I use, really like the new notification system and it was also an excuse to wipe my old Lion install which was slowly grinding to a halt.

Also introduced me to the new Safari, which I quite like too :)

The only thing I liked in the older DP's that isn't in this one is how the Notification Center icon would turn blue, indicating you have new/unread notifications. I'd like to see that brought back for the GM.

Anyone have a guess as to why Apple isn't releasing Facebook integration with Mountain Lion's initial release? Why have it in these DPs, but not in the final release?

Could that be a Facebook request, to launch this integration both on iOS and in Mountain Lion at the same time?
