system freezes

Hello Joel,

Well, yes, that is correct. I have the same thing happening to me when 
using World of Warcraft, but *only* when I have my external screen 
attached. This is possibly related to that? So perhaps it can be 
prevented by disconnecting my second screen before starting OmniGraffle?

I will send the windowserver.log as soon as it happens again to me. 
Weird enough, I've been using Omnigraffle heavily again today without 
any problems as of yet.

Stefan
