I might destroying pink dreams of windows cozyness, but to my knowledge 
*compiling* something under windows is at least as hard, if not harder, 
than under linux.

As I said - I use ubuntu, and do issue an

apt-get install python2.5

and afterwards I end up with a python2.5 including Tkinter and whatnot.

You deliberately chose to do otherwise, goind the hard way - don't 
expect to be your hands being hold.
