I just upgraded to Mountain Lion and noticed that a number of fonts are appearing bolder then they should. Anyone know a fix?
Same problem as this:

System Preferences > General > uncheck ‘Use LCD font smoothing when available’

weird those screenshots in the original link look 'lighter' than mine do... now im worried im all bold haha.

I read a post that the OS might confuse non-Apple displays with CRT monitors and apply different font smoothing to them. I figured there must be a way to fix it.

Try this and restart:
defaults -currentHost write -globalDomain AppleFontSmoothing -int 1
Or this
defaults -currentHost write -globalDomain AppleFontSmoothing -int 2

Since upgrading to ML, my cursor disappears in photoshop constantly, my mail app refuses to make alert sounds, and photoshop becomes unresponsive when saving things as PDFs.

Mountain Lions can smell the menstruation.
