I use the "R CMD build --binary" command under Windows in Parallels Desktop for Mac. It works quite well on my macbook with 2Gb RAM. See http://www.parallels.com/ You might want to check VirtualBox too : http://www.virtualbox.org/ which is now free (GNU licence). Of course, you must have the complete R development tools setup under the guest Windows OS, which is even trickier than on MacOS (as opposed to Linux). I also have a Linux Debian installed in Parallels Desktop and R CMD build --binary works well too.
