You held down the power for 20 seconds? I'm pretty sure you don't need to do that when a PS3 freezes. Whenever my PS3 freezes you just have to push the power button on the console and it shuts down. Holding the power button is for when you want to reconfigure your screen settings or something. I've never done it, but I heard a troubleshoot on the PS Blogcast.
Anyway. What PS3 model do you have? What kind of cable output are you using? What are your video and display settings like?
Before the PS3 everyone was nice to me :(
