disheartening FREEZE New iMac

well i have a 27" i5 2.7 iMac for about 3 days now and today it finally froze completely. I had iTunes safari and another program open listening to music. then when i went to switch back to iTunes it froze with a spinning beach ball thing. the music kept playing but the track time froze. and the mouse moved flawlessly with the ball spinning too. attached a picture of my temps right after i plugged it in and started it. the computer has no lag whatsoever. its such a beautiful fast quiet computer and this really brought me down. maybe this has to do with the new lion i installed? i shouldn't have updated so quickly.

sorry. i don't know how to resize images

After updating to Lion, did you run Software Update from the Apple menu to get the latest iTunes by chance?

yes i did everything is up to date. i noticed that my fan speeds don't really change no matter what the temps of my iMac are. and how are those temps when doing what i described in my op?

Your temps and fan speeds are normal for an iMac. Your hardware is OK. It's likely a software glitch. If it happens again, go to your logs and copy/paste the error here for us to look at. You can access your logs this way:

Click on the Apple in the upper left corner, -> more info, -> system report. Scroll on down to "Logs". Click on logs and find the error log.

thanks. will do.

It seems to be a known problem with imacs and Lion, apparently known about since before release see this thread on another forum New iMac and Lion problems. - MacRumors Forums
possibly related to 'sleep', hope this helps

thats the exact thing i thought. there working out the kinks. as long as its not hardware so i don't have to move this heavy thing.

well it happened again. but the log is too big to post. how else can i post it?
and also which error log is it? i think its file system repair log. but I'm not sure
