Just saw this on 0xDECAFBAD: # Mac OS X: Interruption of Windows (SMB) Connection Can Cause Computer to Stop Responding. No really?

Workaround: don’t do that!

Straight from the AppleCare Knowledge Base Document:

Solution

Avoid the issue by ejecting any Windows shared volumes before:

• Changing your computer Network Location, or
• Shutting down the Windows (SMB) server, or
• Putting the computer to sleep, if you know the Windows (SMB) server will not be available when the computer wakes from sleep.

Ironically, this is one of the first things Jason told me to make sure and NOT do, but it did happen last night as I was trying to leave work a liitle too hastily
