How can I tell if I have the Venture Beta?

[StarShot]

A couple of days ago I got a notice that Venture was out and since I didn't have anything else to do, I installed it much to my regret. Just don't like the look of it.

I'm thinking of trying to revert to Monterey, but that seems a bit complicated. Still I MIGHT give it a shot. Wondering if I got the Ventura Beta? It says Ventura 13.0. I'm worried if I do go the revert path, I might lose data, music and other things I don't want to go bye-bye.

The version released to the public is Ventura 13.0. You wouldn't get a beta version unless you signed up and registered your Mac at beta.apple.com.

you'll give up bug fixes, enhancements... progress, because of the look of the OS? what about giving it some time? then you'll get used to it, and all will be well, and you'll be moving forward, not backward...

That's what I thought. Thanks for the info...

I guess I'll get used to it. The one thing I definitely don't like is the new display for "system".
