Runs stable on my Mac Air (2011) model, haven't noticed anything different over previous public build to be honest.

I'm having random lockups every now and then on this beta.
Music keeps playing but the screen is frozen for 30 sec+

No faster shutdown
Graphics performance is still very questionable since that efi update on my retina mbp.

I'm a developer running 10.8.3 and I wouldn't recommend it to anyone at this point. I've had 3 crashes already today, at least one of which was related to OpenGL. At least my Retina MacBook Pro only takes 5 seconds to reboot but it's still annoying. Hopefully subsequent betas will be better.

That's also how i see it..

Just had another 3 crashes tonight. Last one was a kernel panic while viewing photos in Aperture. This build is the least stable beta build I've seen from Apple in a while. Generally even the Mountain Lion pre release builds were better than this.

I agree with this is the least stable beta that Apple have given us in LOOONNGGG Time!

Hopefully this will solve my constantly dropping wifi connection since 10.8 :(

Tried all the interim fixes to no avail so far.

OSX 10.8.3 beta freezes my screen (Nvidia drivers involved?). I encounter this problem more often on Safari in full screen which forces me to restart the mac.
I have a Macbook Pro 4.1

I had that happen on one of those too, but assumed that it's the Nvidia chip failing.

Same here :/ Too bad i upgraded, lets hope for an update soon!

Do you both use nVidia CUDA drivers? On my laptop, my graphics seem erratic just like yours, but I did notice after I reboot my CUDA pref requests for me to update the drivers. However the latest ones are already installed.

This is the same thing that I have been getting. However when this happens on my laptop it locks up the whole OS, but if I am listening to music it continues to play. This then forces me to reboot, once I do that, CUDA then tells me a Driver update is required. However, I have the latest driver [CUDA 5.0.37].

After i switched to Mac i do not think about drivers, so i dont know :p

I deleted the CUDA driver and I still have this problem.

Bottom line is, graphics are crap ever since Lion... Mountain Lion is no different. Enough is said... :mad:
