I have had some major issues with my macbook pro for the last couple of months.
My macbook pro (unibody 15inch 2.8mhz 4gig ram) keeps randomly freezing and every time i have to shut down the computer by holding in the powerbutton.

I have followed all the steps that Apple support have guided me to and it also been in for repair at my local Apple premium resseler but the technichan there was cluless and after four weeks all he could figure out was that a preformance update was missing. This didnt change things and for the last month and 1 half it has been atleast a couple of times each week.

After talking again to apple support it has to go into repair once again.

Is there anyone that have had the simular problem with thier macbook pro and can help me out here.

Is it freezing when you're running a particular program?

Since you have 4GB memory, have you tried removing 2GB and see if you still get the kernel panics? If so, swap the 2GB memory modules around and re-check. It could be bad memory.

The freezing is completely random. it can be when i just started up Mac OSX, it can be when watching you tube video etc.

You would assume when you leave the computer for repair they check the memories, wouldn't you think?

Sounds like memory issues to me, to be honest.

Personally, I don't take any computers for repairs, and do all the repairs/diagnostrics myself :D

There's the Apple hardware test you can try yourself:
