In XP, it is called a Command Prompt (window).  You can get one without 
Python by looking under All Programs / Accessories.  It is similar to the 
Win 9X 'Dos Window'.  But has a much bigger scrollback capacity.

But I now use IDLE which has a Python Shell window that simulates the 
Command Prompt window but is much easier to cut from (to paste into 
postings, for instance).
