LPM: ActiveState's PerlApp

Hello, List!

Have any of you used ActiveState's PerlApp?  From the web site, I 
gather that PerlApp creates executables from Perl scripts so that 
you can run 'em on machines without Perl.  This interests me; I'm 
working on a few utility scripts that use Tk to provide what I hope is 
a nice user interface, and I'd prefer to distribute .exe files to my 
users (um, all two of them) rather than commit myself to installing 
and maintaining Perl on their PCs.  

Does anyone care to share a success (or failure) story or know of 
ways other than PerlApp to create standalone Perl applications?

Thanks,
Janine
