In Apple's earnings press release issued just moments ago, Apple CEO Tim
Cook officially announced that OS X Mountain Lion will indeed be launching
tomorrow, July 25.
“We’re thrilled with record sales of 17 million iPads in the June quarter,
” said Tim Cook, Apple’s CEO. “We’ve also just updated the entire
MacBook line, will release Mountain Lion tomorrow and will be launching iOS
6 this Fall. We are also really looking forward to the amazing new products
we’ve got in the pipeline.”
OS X Mountain Lion will be priced at $19.99 and will be available via the
Mac App Store.
Apple followed a similar tactic last year, announcing at the start of its
July earnings conference call that OS X Lion would launch the following day.
