update: Have not had a single boot go right since above posts (18 jan). Try every other day, go into recovery mode and load whatever updates there are and hope for the best. I've got no idea what caused this intermittent issue to become a complete show stopper, but it must have been in the updates between 13 and 18 jan 2011.
