The simple answer is that sys.path has nothing to do with the PATH 
environment variable.
sys.path is initialized from the location of the Python executable; 
PYTHONPATH can be used to prepend additional directories. You might 
set PYTHONHOME too, but for a standard installation its not needed - 
mainly for embedded interpreters where the running application is not 
python itself.
