[Tutor] Which Python?

I'm a Windows XP user, primarily (occasional Linux use).
I use Activestate's ActivePython, 2.2.2. My major reason is that I
used to use ActivePerl a lot, and when I decided to give Python a whirl,
it seemed logical to use ActivePython.
Now that Python 2.3 is out, I'm looking ahead to when I'm going to cut
over to 2.3, and I'm wondering: what are the reasons to install either
ActivePython (when 2.3 becomes available) or the standard Windows Python
from python.org?
Any opinions?
