I end up hitting the reset button, followed quickly by a power plug removal. 
then plug it back in and restart. I have an older model iMac (intel) that seems 
to have this problem in both 10.5 and 10.6 series OS'es. fortunately, its not 
as common in 10.6. now if I could just get voiceover to stop crashing.
