Freaky event...electrical???

Anybody had a problem similar to this (and a solution)?

Saturn SL2, 4 door with the DOHC 4-cylinder, 5-speed

Start the car up, no problem, put it in 1st gear to go and the car sputters slightly, the ABS light and traction light come on, the stereo turns off...then a second later everything is fine and dandy and the car is ready to go.

If it was once it wouldn't have thought much of it, but it's happened three times now over the course of a few days, (but not every time driven), so...
