Can you give us a synopsis? or point us to when exactly in the clip we're supposed to listen?
Er, I didn't listen to the whole thing, but there are some references to numpy being difficult to install under platforms other than windows (arguable I guess), I got the impression the speaker was conflating the enthon distribution with scipy, and he says at one point that numarray is the successor to numpy. Not fud exactly, but a bit misleading. Matthew
