I've had success with pygtk on win32 and Linux (and OS X with the X11
server installed.)

http://www.pcpm.ucl.ac.be/~gustin/win32_ports/
http://gladewin32.sourceforge.net/index.php (for the C devel and runtime
packages)

The pygtk manual, tutorial, and FAQ are all very good.  You don't have to
wade through C or C++ documentation.

The only complaints I have are that the glade GUI builder hasn't caught up
with gtk development (particularly the new UIManager), and that the list
widget is relatively slow.

Lately I've been evaluating jython and Swing, though.
