Another option would be to use a Custom Property set to keep track of which image to display. On openstack, determine the system type and set the custom prop set appropriately.

Thanks to all for your suggestions, but they do not precisely fit what I
need.

The image solutions assume one look-and-feel...if the standalone were to be run on Vista, for example, the image would have the wrong motif when
compared to the neighboring conventional checkboxes.  And Stephen's
solution uses disabled as the third state, which is not what I need. I
need an enabled third state.

I am guessing this is not possible, but any other ideas are greatly
appreciated.

Well, the closest you can get is to have a single image that shows the
equivocal state that is put on top of a real checkbox, and is hidden.
When the user clicks on the checkbox, you check the current state of
the hilite and if it is true (checked), you show the equivocal image on
top and allow the mouseup to continue (which will change the checkbox
to cleared (unchecked), but beneath the equivocal image. Then when the
user clicks on the image, you have script that simply hides the image.

Then to find out the "state" of the checkbox, you'd just check the
visible of the image - if it's showing, you're in an equivocal state;
if not, you take the hilite of the checkbox.
