 article, a patch may be required to address some issue when upgrading to 10.8.0. Questions,
1. Have anyone tried installing the 10.8.0-293?
2. How long did it took to download and install?
3. Would you recommend to have an observation period between 10.8.0-7 upgrade and the patch install or should we immediately install the patch after the software update?

Regarding Patch installation, we recommend patch to  be installed soon after upgrading to 10.8.0-7.
