Mountain Lion's first developer preview has been around for a couple of days now, and most of the banner features - largely composed of new imports from iOS - have been covered and discussed not just by us, but also by the majority of the tech press. While we wanted to provide you with some coverage of Mountain Lion, note that it comes with caveats - first, this is a look at the first developer preview of an operating system that isn't due out for at least six months, so everything you see here is very much subject to change. We've done our best (using both gut instincts and precedents set by previous OS X versions) to identify and discuss only features that we're pretty sure will make it into the shipping version of the OS, but nothing's final yet. Second, with just a few days of usage under our belts, this is by no means a comprehensive list of the changes so far, but rather an account of what we found most interesting as a current OS X user and administrator. With all of this in mind, let's get started!
