This is exactly what I see from 64 bit python installed on 64 bit 
Windows.  'win32' refers to the Windows platform, versus linux, unix, 
darwin, etc.  Yes, it is confusing.

The next line says that this binary runs fine.  So 'No'.  The problem is 
specific to trying to run pip.

MSC v.1900 is the latest Microsoft C compiler, which was used to compile 
the binary.  It is not downloaded.
