I was trying to restart my powerbook and tiger froze up while shutting down. I took the battery out but its still frozen and I can't get it to shut off or do anything for that matter. Pointer moves around the screen and it makes a noise when keys are pushed but thats it. Any suggestions?
Got a tip for us?

Unplug, and take the battery out. It'll shut down.
...make sure to wait until the hard drive stops spinning first, because otherwise you could damage the drive.

Just Curious:
How long have you been using Tiger?
Did you do a clean install?
Had it been acting weird before? (Kernel Panics)
