Except if you are standing there waiting to close the lid ;)

Both are important. Start up times are fast with Mavericks.

Ah, missed that bit. I was thinking desktops where I just select shutdown while doing last minute stuff before leaving.
 
'Developer Preview' status dropped now so probably gm or candidate

Sweet!!!!! Who ever manages to try it let us know how it is :)

OSX Mavericks GM seeded. Possible release on the 17th or 18th? Usually how long after do they release software.

Probably the following week. ML was released three weeks after its GM.

Sorry, yeah you're right. Probably October 25th then. I forgot about this:

The source has also corroborated our previous report by indicating that OS X Mavericks is currently scheduled to arrive on the Mac App Store within the last ten days of the month of October.
