Hm, this doesn't work for you either? It says on this page that  
"import Numeric" is a normal test:
http://numpy.scipy.org/numpydoc/numpy-3.html

You got my hopes up for a second there, but I can do neither:

Python 2.5 (r25:51918, Sep 19 2006, 08:49:13)
[GCC 4.0.1 (Apple Computer, Inc. build 5341)] on darwin
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
 >>> from numpy import *
Running from numpy source directory.
 >>> a= array([[1,2,3],[4,5,6]])
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
NameError: name 'array' is not defined

 >>> import numpy
 >>> a = numpy.array([[1,2],[3,4]])
Traceback (most recent call last):
   File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
AttributeError: 'module' object has no attribute 'array'
