+.. admonition:: Max OS X permissions
+   
+   If you're using Mac OS X, you may see the message "permission
+   denied" when you try to run ``django-admin.py startproject``. This
+   is because, on Unix-based systems like OS X, a file must be marked
+   as "exceutable" before it can be run as a program. To do this, open
+   Terminal.app and navigate (using the `cd` command) to the directory
+   where ``django-admin.py`` is installed, then run the command
+   ``chmod +x django-admin.py``.
