I purchased a MacBook Air in the last week. It is supposed to come with a free
upgrade to Mountain Lion. I tried to use the web form to request the upgrade at
https://uptodate.apple.com/UtdPrepareAction?program=Mountain%20Lion&locale=en_us
But it isn't accessible on any browser. You must enter the date by using some
inaccessible calendar control, and even the button to submit the form is some
non-standard Javascript thing. Doesn't even work on Windows (Internet
Explorer/Firefox).
Oh well. I have a suggestion. Next time, they should write the whole form in
Flash, and require that it run inside of a Java VM, and, of course, only let it
run on Safari. Only a form of that complexity is worth collecting my purchase
date, number of qualifying systems, and the name of the reseller that sold it
to me. Certainly, if they switch to a basic form, we'll all think them
amateurs. This is frustrated sarcasm, just to be clear.

I have problems with downloading new system. App store says. The item is
temporarily unavailable? Have you got this problem too?
