sa mga Mac users here na gustong mag update pero walang Credit Card or iTunes Card na pang bili sa App Store, here's a workaround:
1. First, check here if supported ba Mac mo:
http://www.apple.com/osx/specs/
2. Must be currently running Snow Leopard or Lion
3. Download this torrent:
http://kat.ph/torrents/mac-os-x-mountain-lion-retail-ikmn-t6538137/
This is a retail version, not the GM.
4. Mount the Installer then Right-clicking the file opens an additional menu, where you can select “Show Package Contents”. Afterwards, a new Finder window that shows the normally hidden package contents. Among them is the “Contents” folder. Double click on that folder. “Shared Support”. There will now be shown, among other things, the file “InstallESD.dmg”
5. Copy InstallESD.dmg to you desktop then mount it.
6. Launch Disk Utility.
Drag the InstallESD.dmg disk image into the bottom (empty area) of Disk Utility’s sidebar (on the left). In Disk Utility, select InstallESD.dmg in the sidebar, and then click the Open button in the toolbar to mount the disk image’s volume in the Finder. The mounted volume is called Mac OS X Install ESD, and it also appears below InstallESD.dmg in Disk Utility.Select Mac OS X Install ESD in Disk Utility’s sidebar, then click the Restore button in the main part of the window. Drag the Mac OS X Install ESD icon into the Source field on the right (if it isn’t already there).
Connect to your Mac the properly formatted hard drive or flash drive you want to use for your bootable Mountain Lion installer.
In Disk Utility, find this destination drive in the left-hand sidebar and then drag it into the Destination field on the right. (If the destination drive has multiple partitions, just drag the partition you want to use as your bootable installer volume.) Warning: The next step will erase the destination drive or partition, so make sure it doesn’t contain any valuable data. Click Restore, and then Erase in the dialog box that appears; if prompted, enter an admin-level username and password.
7. Reboot your MAC, then press and hold the "Option" key when you hear the chime. a boot menu will appear. boot from the Flash Disk. Just follow on-screen instructions.
8. Congratulations! you now updated your Mac to OS X Mountain Lion without buying from the App Store...
