As noted by 9to5Mac, Apple today seeded build 12E52 of OS X 10.8.4 to developers. The release comes seven days after the previous build 12E47 and marks the seventh beta iteration of OS X 10.8.4.
As with previous beta releases, Apple continues to ask developers to focus on Wi-Fi, Graphics Drivers, and Safari.
The update is available through the software update tool in the Mac App Store and Apple's Developer Page.

Given this fact, those people who rather pompously brushed aside those who value fast-shutdown times, need to reconsider their stance.
Fast shutdown times encourage me to shut down when I'm not using it since it takes minimal time to start up and shutdown.
But when that process takes more time, the lazy approach is to just leave it in sleep mode, which leaves your Mac more vulnerable to data theft it is stolen while in sleep mode.
To those who lazily just put their Macs to sleep -- and, in their ignorance, BRAG about it -- educate yourself and do this google search:

And whilst Apple are at it fixing ML 10.8.4, they might address this security issue that sleeping Macs have.
i agree man. everyone bitching about startup and shutdown times is crazy. like how many times a day do you turn off your mac??:confused:
Come on, not everyone uses Macs the same way as you do. :mad:
And, even if it may not bother you, this is still more of a bug.
Regardless of the purpose which may have been to prevent iCloud sync issues or what not.
Great! I just want my favorite Mac site to be correct.
