Richard,
I've seen your posts on this subject several times now and I never
thought it was a real problem. I have now actually done a test on Win
XP, building a standalone on a PC, zipping it and copying it over to a
Mac OS X Leopard machine. The standalone runs fine. Under which
circumstances doesn't the standalone run exactly?

Earlier here we discussed the difficulty of making Mac builds from
other OSes, and at the time we were focused on Windows.
I just ran this simple test on Ubuntu 10.04:
1. Make a Mac standalone
2. Zipped it
3. Copied the Zip file via USB drive (FAT16, FWIW) to my Mac
4. Unzipped it
5. Double-clicked it
RESULT: Ran just fine.
Apparently since both OS X and Linux have the same Unix executable
bit, it carries over across platforms.
I've been lusting after the Lemur UltraThin from System76:

I'm not surprised: it looks fantastic.
My only worry would be if something went wrong and I had to open the case.
Knowing that I can build for all three platforms from that system
pushes a bit closer to getting one....
