The Win32 installer works on my Vista machine.  There is one failed
test, but I think that's just because it tries to write somewhere it
doesn't have permission - I installed Python in /Program
Files/Python25/, and you need to be an administrator to write to
Program Files/.

Here's the error message:

ERROR: test_ValidHTTP (numpy.lib.tests.test__datasource.TestDataSourceOpen)
