Well, upgrading to winsock 2.0 did the trick. I used a system quite
similar to the first one, running W95, Python 2.0 (final), etc. and got
the same problem as well. Didn't installed opengl upgrade (yet), though.

Demo runs now fine (impressing). I like the explanation/code/example
style. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction!
Now its time to study wxPython ...
