Dane Summers successfully answered Rich Collins's question:

At least once a day, OS X Freezes when I Command-Tab.

The application switcher comes up, the selection box is over an application I can move the mouse but that is it. I have to restart every time this happens. I will pay mucho to get this working.

*Update*

I found this person with the same problem:

*Update*

I already upgraded to 10.4.7

*Update*

I already tried to repair file permissions

*Update*

This happened on my PowerBook, and now it is happening on a "fresh" install on my new MacBook. Here is what I am usually running:
* TextMate
* FireFox (Have a hunch this is it for some reason)
* X-Chat
* Terminal
* Mail
* Adium
* SSH Keychain
* iTunes

hi, i guess u r using an intel based apple macintosh, if im right, your problem could be solved by the update called MacOSXUpd10.4.7Intel.dmg

 u could download this file from the link below 

http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosxupdate1047intel.html

there are some critical graphical patches  included which could fix your command+TAb troubles.

NOTE: this update concerns just INTEL based apple mac, cos the osX intel version misses some files...
