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

Maybe you are hitting the maximum process limit on the machine? I ran into a similar problem a few months ago.
Try increasing it. Put in /etc/sysctl.conf the lines:
kern.maxproc=2048
kern.maxprocperuid=1024

Ah that is a new idea. I haven't been getting as many crashes as usually lately. Let me try for a couple of weeks. I will send you there reward if I don't get a crash.
