Retina MacBook Pro fastest OS X Mountain Lion

26th of July, 2012, 10:40 A.M. New York local time — Apple’s new Retina MacBook Pro is reportedly the fastest computer to update to Mac OS X Mountain Lion from Mac OS X Lion claims computer reseller.

Following the Mountain Lion upgrade launch on Wednesday, Apple’s new quad-core processor-equipped Retina MacBook Pro 2012 with 15-inch display is the fastest to upgrade to OS X Mountain Lion, according to a report posted by 9 to 5 Mac quoting an Apple reseller.

Tekserve, an Apple computer reseller, has installed the new operating system on its Macs from MacBook Air to iMac, and unsurprisingly, the new high-end Retina MacBook Pro posts the fastest upgrade with 13 minutes average upgrade time, followed by the new MacBook Air models, the 13-inch mid-2012 MacBook Air and the 11-inch both have dual-core Ivy Bridge processor.

The “slowest” to update in the list is the mid-2012 MacBook Pro, and the iMac, the late 2011 model, appears to update faster than the new laptop.

“Their speed can be attributed to having solid state drives [SSD], which can access data much faster than a standard magnetic hard drive,” reveals the retailer in a blog post.

Mac OS X Mountain Lion was launched on Wednesday via over-the-air. The new operating system costs $19.99 and available only in the Mac App Store. New computers are eligible for free upgrade via the “up to date” program of Apple.
