"Power Nap requires a Mac notebook with built-in flash storage. May require a firmware update."
We have to wait for the Firmware-Updates. Some are already here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5394
And I am shure, that you will need for Power Nap one of the newer Macs with SSD from 2011 and 2012.

Jul 26, 2012 8:36 AM in response to jochen2dby minordav3,those are the ones that are supported currently but it would be nice to know if they plan on making a firmware update for older macs that have a ssd. This is the best feature on mountain lion and to not use it just because apple whats you to buy a newer machine is just plan wrong.
