    The version signatures are:

3.2.3 (default, Apr 11 2012, 07:15:24) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)]

3.3.0 (v3.3.0:bd8afb90ebf2, Sep 29 2012, 10:55:48) [MSC v.1600 32 bit 
(Intel)]

    The machine is running Windows 8 64-bit (the Python installations 
are 32-bit though) and the processor is an i3 2350M running at 2.3 GHz.
