You can _only_ use Qt 2.x on Windows without buying a Qt license. You can
either buy BlackAdder, which includes everything you need, or download
the non-commercial Qt for Windows, and the pre-compiled PyQt bindings (if
Phil still makes these available). There are a few nasty bugs in the
non-commercial version of Qt, though.
