Even though your laptop runs a 64-bit operating system, you do not have 
to install 64-bit Python build. You may also install a 32-bit build. 
(Some Python packages may not even build on 64-bit Python)

You can install Python from one of the two places:

1. http://python.org/download/releases/2.6.4/ (AMD64 == 64-bit)

2. http://www.activestate.com/activepython/ (Includes PyWin32, a package 
manager and extra documentation and tutorials).
