Another option is to just do "normal" Win32 GUI programming using the
win32 (Mark Hammond's) Python extensions. Actually, you have 2
options: you can write Python code that looks nearly equivalent to MFC
GUI code, or you can write Python code that looks nearly equivalent to
C Win32 GUI code. Either way you'll have very fast load times and your
program itself will be quite small (no huge libraries to ship with
it).

The downside of course is that you have to do more of the work
yourself, but I've used this approach in a few programs and it worked
well for me. The extensions come with a few examples to get you
started, and if you have experience writing the equivalent C/C++ code
then development actually goes quite fast.

Anyway, it's something to consider..
