That all looks right. Note also that the installer should have added it
to your PATH, so if you type:
python
at a command prompt, you should get it.
Using the Python.org binary is a good idea, as you get an up to date
version, can re-distribute binaries (via py2exe) if you want, and most
third party packages provide binaries for it (of at all).
good luck!
