Won't rouse from sleep

[Michel Treisman]

I sent the following message on 1st July.  Why has it come round on 
25th, I wonder?

But forget that.   Two hours ago my machine stopped working, while I 
was away from my desk (17" TiBook). Nothing I could do roused it.  I 
left it for an hour and tried again, and this time it started up.

Does anyone know what went wrong?  And is there a procedure one should 
follow when this happens?
I want to be prepared for next time, it was a bit alarming. (:<>)
