The "poreis mappah" (PM) approach appeals to me (whose initials are "v'nahafoch hu" ;-)). I would imagine that the person taking that approach would be dressed lichvod hayom (and thus also at a Shabbos-appropriate level) before beginning the seudas Purim and that he would likewise consider his davening alternatives beforehand. As others have since noted, a communal seudah is certainly one method, and a "basement minyan" of PMers would be another (assuming their shul isn't that close to where they live). <br>
