Hi Zac,

Mac OS X comes with python already installed - just open a 'Terminal' and
type python.
In a Windows environment you have to install Python (or perhaps run it from
a flash drive) but in Mac OS X Python comes as part of the
system so you don't need to mess around downloading it and trying to
install it.

Hope that helps,

Tahir
