I installed PyGUI-2.0.1 on Windows (32 bit, non Administrator access).
I got the following error in 2.0.1 when attempting the BlobEdit example:

D:\users\omh\runabq\pyGUI>c:\python26\python
Python 2.6.1 (r261:67517, Dec  4 2008, 16:51:00) [MSC v.1500 32 bit (Intel)] on win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.

Traceback (most recent call last):

     import Components, Windows
   File "c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Win32\Components.py", line 12, in <module>
     from Win32 import win_none
   File "c:\python26\lib\site-packages\GUI\Win32\__init__.py", line 2, in <module>
     raise ImportError("This should not be imported.")
ImportError: This should not be imported.

I presume that one should be able to import GUI.Win32 if I need to import win_none from it.

If I comment out line 2, I get the following error:
...
   File "c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Win32\Components.py", line 12, in <module>
     from Win32 import win_none
ImportError: cannot import name win_none

The directory structure that was installed is as follows:
c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI
c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Generic
c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Resources
c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Resources\cursors
c:\python26\Lib\site-packages\GUI\Win32
