That may be true, but it doesn't explain why python won't run.  I'm 
guessing that it has something to do with the msvc*90.dll files not 
getting installed.  If those dlls haven't been previously installed, 
they won't be on the client machine in order for python to use them.  
However, I haven't had any luck installing these files manually and 
getting python to work that way.
