OS X Mountain Lion to Bring Automatic App Downloads

Apple is planning to bring Automatic Downloads for apps to OS X Mountain Lion, reveals the latest developer preview.

9to5Mac notes that although the feature appears to be present it isn't fully working yet.

While the App Store will still offer to enable automatic downloads (as seen above), it does not actually install anything when you purchase apps from another computer.

There is a good chance we will see at least one more developer preview, or at least a GM, in the coming weeks that should fully enable the feature.
