You can, with some limitations.  Basically, the code the .exe
contains/uses must be present on all platforms you try to run it on. :-)

So if you use (e.g.) System.EnterpriseServices, it'll likely only run on
.NET, and not Rotor, PNet, Mono, or Pocket PC.

While System.Collections should exist on all those platforms.

Another exception is "mixed-code" assemblies -- assemblies that contain
both native and managed code.  Currently, only Managed Extensions to C++
can generate such assemblies, and such assemblies CANNOT be run on
multiple platforms (nor should you expect them to, as a PowerPC can't
run x86 code without introducing an emulator...).
