Sorry about what I posted! I'm just upset that it has taken more than four months. I'm trying to be as patient as I can.
They better have a good reason for it, such as bug fixing.
That's kind of the point of betas. They are used for bug fixing. I'm glad it's taking so long because that means it'll fix many of the bugs present in ML.
Have had 0 issues with 10.8.2 on my Mac Air. Any 0 issues with all these 10.8.3 betas......
What?!!! ANOTHER beta? That's exactly what I DID NOT WANT to happen. This has to be the LAST beta before public release. Maybe I could afford to wait one more week, but I CANNOT WAIT two more weeks.
I'm trying to be as patient as I can, but I think that Apple is taking TOO long. They better have a good reason for it, such as bug fixing.
Its cute that you think you have any say in the matter or that making demands will do a single thing.

I hope they follow through on the major 'graphics' update they want developers to focus on. On my rMBP 15" + 10.8.2, graphics are horrendous. Laggy UI, VERY glitchy Safari rendering and frame rates of ~30fps which are ~100fps in Bootcamp in the same game. (Yes, even after multiple clean installs and smc resets)
Where are the days when we snickered at Windows users for having to wait for SP3 to be using a final product. Here we are.
Also, the ****ing 'scroll bar at the bottom' bug in the finder pisses me off to no end.
Apple, you disappointed me. I trusted you. I don't mind if you take another month, but please, release something that doesn't feel like I'm using an alpha version.

Last Update?
Like everyone else I'm only guessing, but maybe the OS X software gurus are taking this long to get every thing off the plate for ML with this last release and turn most of the software team on OS X 10.9.

Not that it's an excuse, but the graphical glitches seems to be mostly with the Retina Macs. I don't really noticed any issues with the Mid 2012 MacBook Air I had last autumn nor with the MacBook Pro 13" (also mid 2012) that I have now.
I think 10.8.2 is solid overall, but sure hope there's a lot of improvements in 10.8.3! Better graphics drivers for one.
I know where you're coming from...we all are. You just have to be patient. Remember the longer the wait the less likely there'll be issues with the update. Due to rigorous testing.

WHAT?!! ANOTHER COMMENT ABOUT ANOTHER BETA?
Wish I could say the same! On my 27 inch all i been getting is wirless issues after coming out sleep mode. It's a real pain in the dupa! After 4 months I sure hope it's fixed. Fingers crossed here!
Oh I almost forgot about the mouse cursor that just dissapears at random!

I think you might be referring to the cursor disappearing when it doesn't move then reappearing when you move it.
Is that what happens ?
Have no idea. I just got on my Mac and the cursor thing is gone now. So I'm gonna say the disappearing cursor bug is fixed.
After the release of the 10.9 DP1, Apple needs more engineers to fix bugs in the various DP versions (DP1, DP2, and so on). That means no 10.9 DP1 before 10.8.3.
