Last time
around, Apple was cognizant not everyone has broadband to download a 4GB OS, offering solace to those with slow internet with a (pricey $69)
USB stick alternative. Times change though, as Cupertino's confirmed to
Pocket-lint that the recently unveiled
OS X Mountain Lion won't be offered with a physical counterpart. Apple's reasoning? "It was an interesting test, but it turns out the App Store was just fine for getting the new OS." So there's that. High time you took the plunge and upgraded to broadband apparently, or contemplated moving within the vicinity of an Apple Retail Store's willing WiFi. That or you could just buy a new machine. Your call.
OS X Mountain Lion to be download-only, USB stick going the way of the dodo originally appeared on Engadget on Fri, 17 Feb 2012 21:31:00 EDT. Please see our terms for use of feeds.
