Mavericks FYI

Note: I'm not under an NDA talking moose I've been shown it.

1. Calling System Events from scripts pops up a message for a user to allow it. It then open Security preference pane and the privacy tab. In there is accessibility and you have to unlock as as admin account and allow it.

2. There is an App Store prefpane by default automatically checking for updates. In an Enterprise we want this turned off!

These two keys things are quite major and no idea how to script it. Just throwing it out there and don't expect and replies as I'm sure some of you are under a NDA and can't comment.

Hopefully JAMF doesn't have to kill the thread. In any event, I'd love to talk about this after GM.

Enough said ;) we will revisit this after GM

I would have to disagree with that. Zero search functionality is pants

Your basically paying to do Apples job for them for free.

... well, sort of. That is kind of the point of testing beta software isn't it? However, it's worth pointing out the advantage we have as developers as well. Personally, I'm sure I'll have to deploy 10.9 shortly after it releases. The more I can test with it, the smoother the upgrade/transition will be. I'm sure that's the same for the rest of us. With that said, even if I wasn't doing what I do here, I'm enough of an eager beaver to pay to try out the newest/latest/greatest anyways ;-)

@Chris_Hafner very true :)
