If you have 10.10 installed why would you purchase 10.8?

If your iMac came with OS X Yosemite installed, you won't be able to install Mountain Lion on that computer. You can only run Mountain Lion inside a Virtual Machine, using a software like VMware Fusion, Parallels Desktop for Mac or VirtualBox.

Well. As a matter of fact Mountain Lion is a downgrade compared to Yosemite.
