Force shut down

I opened up my iPhoto, and was in the process of printing a pic, when I hit preview, and everything locked up. I couldn't shut down or menu drop or anything. I finally force shut it down by holding down the start button for a few seconds. Isn't that problematic? Any issues after that forced shutdown that I have to be concerned about?

Command + Option + Esc brings up the force quit menu... do your thing from there..

Click to expand...

yea... but
sometimes the computer may completely lock up, not accepting any input
at that point I think your only option is to hold down the power button

And I don't think you have anything to worry about, I have done this several times to my computer and everything is a-ok

thanks...
