I would never have though of that work-around. I've got all sorts of Ideas buzzing around my head for using this. Awsome:) @Eugene

Since the object (in the case here, a cube) is officially arrayed once you apply the array modifier, it is rendered as an arrayed object even when you haven't moved anything. So the render you will see is crazy because blender trying to render all the arrayed objects at once since it is "officially" many meshes occupying the same space (you can see this effect go away if you make the array count "1" since you remove the other meshes occupying the same space). You can see how Matt/Campbell resolved this issue in their .blend file. They created a non-arrayed version of the cube and put it on a different layer so it seemlessly replaced the arrayed cube when it becomes a single cube. Does that help? @Paul

I'll try VDub next time and see if that alleviates the compatability issues. As far a quality, I lowered it on purpose to diminish the file size.
