Django/AppEngine DevSoup

[John]

Sooo I have a windows box... which I like to think is the reason I'm a
django/appengine mess right now.

There's eclipse, pydev, django non-rel, mediagenerator, etc....

Would it be stupid of me to just use the simple, clean notepad++ &
django with aims to port into appengine after I finish in a week? I
don't want to deal with all of the other stuff. Will this come back to
haunt me in 7 days?

Yours frazzled,
John
