As Mountain Lion Crosses 3M Downloads in 4 Days, Apple Deems The OS Most Successful OS X Release Ever

mountain-lionDespite early hiccups Apple's latest OS X release was downloaded more than 3 million times during its first 4 days of availability. The $20 upgrade brings a host of new features to compatible Macs including Airplay Mirroring, Game Center, system-wide sharing, and beefed-up iCloud integration, which now syncs iWork documents, notes, and reminders.While Apple doesn't speculate the reason for the huge download numbers, several factors likely lead to the quick adoption rate. First, Apple priced OS X 10.8 to move. At only $20 the bew operating system is a rather good bargain even if it doesn't boost a lot of new features. Apple also made upgrading to Mountain Lion rather easy, which also likely lead to more users jumping onto the system.
