Try Python update

[Bas]

To expand on this idea:

You could somehow combine the official tuturial (or any other good
introductory text) and make all the examples in the text 'live'. Maybe
use a split screen with the tutorial text on one side and the trypython
console on the other. The newbie could then immediately try the example
by typing it over himself or by clicking a button 'run in console' next
to the example. Target audience should be only the real beginners who
are afraid/too lazy to install the complete Python enviroment. Advanced
users should be able to do a full install themselves.

Cheers,
Bas
