OS X Mountain Lion Launching Tomorrow, July 25

MacRumors · Jul 24, 2012

In Apple's earnings press release issued just moments ago, Apple CEO Tim Cook officially announced that OS X Mountain Lion will indeed be launching tomorrow, July 25.

"We're thrilled with record sales of 17 million iPads in the June quarter," said Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. "We've also just updated the entire MacBook line, will release Mountain Lion tomorrow and will be launching iOS 6 this Fall. We are also really looking forward to the amazing new products we've got in the pipeline."

OS X Mountain Lion will be priced at $19.99 and will be available via the Mac App Store.

Apple followed a similar tactic last year, announcing at the start of its July earnings conference call that OS X Lion would launch the following day.

Just in time for my out of town trip. Oh well, I will download Saturday when the servers are not overloaded!

Any idea on when the redemption codes will work?

Edit -- And has it been proven that you can make USB install disks for Mountain Lion as well? Would be very helpful to get a few test iMacs up and running with it tomorrow!

At the low price point, it's a no brainer. Looking forward to it.

Sounds good. I'm getting the serial number for my 2012 MacBook Air handy so I can submit the form.

Awesome!

Beezzy · Jul 24, 2012

Yes I can't wait! Hopefully it will be available before I leave for work tomorrow or midnight!

I wonder if they're doing redemption codes for those who purchased after June 11th.

So far no changes, granted we're talking only minutes after announcement on phone call.
