I just wanted to take a "me too" type of moment to say that what little
I've seen in a brief investigation of Pygame has amazed me.  The range
of possibilities is incredible, and some of the games produced so far are
very, very well done.

"Pathological" is a great example.  A couple of days after I found it, it seems
a reviewer on Newsforge has found it as well, and among other things says "This 
game is more addictive than caffeine, more fun than an election year, and more 
frustrating than trying to find a real person to talk with behind the phone 
company's evil voice mail system...."  (See the link from the pygame.org site
for more.)

Looking forward to playing around with Pygame myself...
