[QUOTE="Avalon, post: 42390, member: 5184"] What you had is called a "Kernel panic" and is sort of the equivalent of Windows' BSOD (Blue screen of Death). A Mac, just like a PC, is nothing else than a computer, and yes, even a Mac can "die" like that... But luckily, this happens very very rarely. As you noted yourself, you never saw it before. :D BSODs happen a lot more often, as you probably know... ;-) But seriously now... If it happens more often, try to find out what can provocate it, for example which programs you were running. If it always happens with the same combination of running programs, it's a software problem, related to one of those programs. [/QUOTE]
