[IronPython] Platform comparison

[Bruce Bromberek]

Lets try this a second time :)

Thanks for the link.  I did not know about pynie.  And if you don't know
about it already, its effectively invisible for a google search of
"python+parrot+vm".

Parrot.org only links to pirate (which the nightly build shows 14 failed
tests and 47 errors out of 62 written tests and the last activity in the CVS
being ~ 3 years ago)

The strength of Ironpython is IMHO, the ability to tap into the .NET
framework.  As a reformed perl hacker, that is more important to me than
having python code that can use CPAN modules.
