Reboot it and hold down the trackpad button as it starts up.

argh, nothing's working!

will try rebooting once more then the disc will just have to stay in there! (until i need to put another one in anyway).

If the disk is trying to come out but is stuck you might be able to guide it out with a bit of thin card like a business card. Slide the card into the slot and over the top of the disk (but hang on to the card!) then try to eject the disk again.

did try that too! after googling and finding lots of sites with tips.
