ActivePython has a pretty sophisticated ability to do command-line
installs. This is documented in the release notes which should be in
your "start menu". Yes, you can control the target directory.

Remember: the install can download things off of the web. You should
turn those features off if you are going to be doing batch installs in
places without net connectivity.
