[X4U] Mountain Lion the "clean up" version?

[Gene Steinberg]

It sounds to me as if you're nitpicking. Mission Control and Launchpad are hardly essential to most workflows. If you must have a working virtual desktop — and I grant that Spaces seems broken or neglected — consider a shareware utility, TotalSpaces, which makes it work properly and almost perfectly. To me, Spaces has always been flaky, even the Snow Leopard version.

Peace,
Gene

"Save As" will return, but only as a keyboard shortcut, not as a menu item.  Sort of a grudging consolation from Apple for long-time users who couldn't get used to the new Duplicate command.
