I am using Windows 7 and use Windows Powershell as an alternative to the linux terminal. Any suggestions about how to do that instead of breaking all my code at once?

Yep! And in fact, Python 3.3 includes a launcher that makes it fairly
easy. Just install another version, and then check this out:

You can use a Unix-style shebang to specify which Python version some
script depends on.
