Nope, just downloaded mountain lion on my MacBook Pro and then put it on a memory stick that was bootable and installed it straight on

Very well done! We have practically done the same build! I have mounted my HDD caddy in the bottom which allows me to get two intake fans at the front of the case. It is super cool inside!

I have been doing some more testing of the Intel HD 4000 graphics using Unigine Heaven 3.0 , getting a score of 222 with an average FPS of 8FPS, and a maximum of 15.
Its not great but unless your not gaming it should do absolutely fine!
I was also very impressed that after running those benchmarks the CPU's temps did not go above 40 degrees!

Thank you, I tried to just go for simplicity for this mod! I see no reason to over complicate it!

R.e the HD caddy it was stuck to the bottom using some sticky pads. They are really bad though so don't do a good job of making it stay in place. Its not an issue though as it doesn't move around in there due to the fans holding it in.
I am also hesitant to properly stick it down as I would imagine it will be very hard to get a hard drive in if it is fixed in place!
I think for a more permanent solution I will get some strong velcro, that way it can be removed when I upgrade the hard drives.

The caddy was originally going to go under the optical drive however I drilled the holes in the wrong place and wasn't going to take the whole thing apart to rectify it so thats why the caddy ended up in the bottom. I think it works best though!

Placing the HD caddy in the bottom is much better for airflow, if hung from the DVD tray then you are blocking all the airflow to the graphics card and PSU.
