Terry,

You might be interested in this doc I just wrote up for the PSF sprint
group: http://docs.pythonsprints.com/core_development/beginners.html. It
could use a more accurate/friendly compilation setup for Mac/Linux (I've
done it in the past, I just have no idea what I did), but a few interested
beginners have looked it over and said it was helpful.

Although a Windows development environment can be had with free (as in beer)
tools, I can ping our contact at Microsoft for MSDN subscriptions as needed.

Brian
