I haven't seen it mentioned but the bug of having to select change wallpaper twice to bring up sytem preferences is still there. Very minor but I would think relatively easy for them to fix. This is present on all 5 of my Macs.
Got a tip for us?

I re-enabled Trim using ChameleonSSDOptimizer and that worked (as shown in system profiler)

Absolutely install them. I simply put them on top of the old drivers and it's working great.
enable TRIM
and restart...
Code:
sudo perl -pi -e 's|(\x52\x6F\x74\x61\x74\x69\x6F\x6E\x61\x6C\x00{1,20})[^\x00]{9}(\x00{1,20}\x54)|$1\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00\x00$2|sg' /System/Library/Extensions/IOAHCIFamily.kext/Contents/PlugIns/IOAHCIBlockStorage.kext/Contents/MacOS/IOAHCIBlockStorage
sudo touch /System/Library/Extensions/and restart...
This is a very good question. I can't find an answer. The fact that Boot Camp now works with 3 TB hard drives somewhat implies that it's running Windows via GPT/EFI.
EDIT: On Apple's Boot Camp 5 FAQ, it says that this new version of Boot Camp only support Windows 7 and 8, and only the 64-bit versions of either. AFAIK, those just happen to be the only versions of Windows that support booting via EFI from a GPT drive -- this is something else that suggests that Boot Camp has dropped the BIOS emulation.

I don't care about anything in this update other than "did they fix the hibernation issue in ML ?".
I want my wireless to work properly when I wake up from sleep and the other handful of hibernation issues.

I feel like I should be out drinking to celebrate this occasion (given how many betas there were over such a long period of time).
Anybody else getting a ton of "Can’t create kext cache under / – owner not root" errors in console after the update?

So did anyone else's updater have ADD?
- Downloading
- Need to reboot, is this OK? Me: Yes
- Can't reboot, busy installing
- OK, can reboot now, OK? Me: Still yes
- Unloads desktop
- Do you want to install the update before rebooting? Me: Still still yes... oh wait I can't click anything because you've already unloaded the mouse driver
- Fortunately there's a 60-second timeout
- It installs and reboots
- System comes back up and promptly tells me that there's an update available
- "No Updates Available" when I click it
It went though 13 betas for this?

Installed 10.8.3 with the combo update on my Mac Pro. No issues, everything booted fine. Okay, let's look at the Console log....
FFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!!!!
Oh, Apple. Nice trollin. Gold star for you.
Let's see, what was the one bug in Mountain Lion that elicited a cacophony of complaints by users? Oh right, the mdworker bug you DIDN'T FIX in 10.8.3.
FYI I'm also getting spammed with this new error now as well:
Top work, Apple. Those extra beta builds really ironed things out.

10.8.3 swapped my monitor configuration on my late '12 mini. (Assumes HDMI is primary) No biggie. so far so good!!
Has anyone been able to successfully bootcamp with the 3TB with Fusion iMac? I downloaded and installed the 10.8.3 update with no issues but after rebooting and starting up bootcamp, I haven't been able to successfully partition the drive. I was hoping to split the drive to 2TB for Mac and 1TB for Windows 7. It seems to just sort of hang.
Wi-Fi here does not re connect after sleep mode! Bummer! Never had this issue till I updated to ML. It always restored Wi-Fi before after being asleep
! I wish I knew the answer as it's a pain in the arse!
Well Good luck! It didn't fix mine o a 27 in 2011 iMac.

I did get an Airport Extreme and still have this issue on a 27 in 2011 iMac! Anyone know the fix for this?

After getting the error shown below on my macbook pro Console logs.
com.apple.kextd: Cant create kext cache under / - owner not root.
A Google search showed; The solution for this is run this in terminal:
sudo chown root:admin /
I don't mean fps in terms of gaming performance -- I mean Safari's Quartz Extreme performance when browsing heavy sites like The Verge. Quartz Extreme allows use of the GPU to accelerate page rendering performance. That speed can be measured in fps.
OS X 10.8.3 is last one right?
Or will there be a 10.8.4.
Hopefully the next OS Apple shows is 10.9

You and me both!
I'm done bleeding on this one. I've waited patiently through three updates in 10.8 and the entire 10.7. Back to Snow Leo................ I'm sure a faster and much less bloated OS with less bugs won't hurt my feelings.
