OK, Thanks for the cut 'n paste that solves the mystery.

When you see

C:\some\path> somecommand

The bit up to the > is the OS prompt and you should NOT type that.
But it may tell you which folder you need to be in before you
do type it.

So, having seen the instruction above you would actually type

cd C:\some\path
somecommand

In your specific case you should type

cd C:\Python27\Scripts
dir pip*

Now try again and see if it works.
