brand new MBPr picked it up last week. tonight something off happened.
I have my screensaver set for a 2 minute start time, and an immediate password.

While glancing down for a few minutes going over a paper I was analyzing on Word, the screensaver triggered. As the screen went dark it caught my eye so I swiped my hand over the trac-pad almost immediately. No response, nothing. I tried multiple key combinations and gave it a few minutes, finally I tried shutting the top so it may possibly go to sleep and then I could wake it out of it's funk.

No deal, I re-opened the top just to stare at a black/greyish screen...so now not only do I not have a screensaver thats not responding to me....but I'm left with a black screen.

Had to hold the power and shut it down and restart....I'm just really annoyed that just happened.

Has anyone experienced this or similar?
