    You DO have to Upgrade to Snow Leopard 10.6.8 first, then you can Upgrade directly to Mountain Lion from there, IF your computer supports Mountain Lion (see below)?  Snow Leopard at this point is only available by calling Apple Customer Support in your country and ordering the download code and process, or possibly a Disk, for Snow Leopard.
