Note, I said "REPLY-ALL'.  By default a simple reply goes to the 
individual, and not to the list.  Make sure python-list at python.org is in 
your "TO:" list.  I'm sending this back to the list, with my remarks at 
the end, since top-posting is inconsistent and confusing.

Two questions:

1) what version of Python ?  You're using the version 3 capitalization.  
Might you have version 2.x of Python installed?

    >>>>Tkinter has been renamed to tkinter in Python 3.0

      import sys
      print sys.version

2) where is tkinter installed, and is it the right place for this 
instance of python?   You can see your Python's search path with the 
following:
      import sys
      print sys.path

Generally, standard libraries are installed in the lib directory, and 
3rd party libraries are installed in site-packages.
