  Since others have already replied, just a comment.  The pygtk (and
gtk port in general) does not yet support threading on windows. This
may/may not be necessary for your app but it's a factor. GTK 2.0 is
supposed to fix it but support isn't available *yet*.

  Also, because wxPython wraps the native GUI calls, it has the same
look and feel as windows apps. pygtk does not (I haven't tried 2.0
yet though).
