[Pythonmac-SIG] Python development on OSX

[Daniel O'Donovan]

> And- I want to update the default python that came om my macbook pro to 2.7. Should I do install that from Python.org?

I personally think that this would be the simplest solution - but other distributions do have their virtues and proponents. For example, Enthought takes the pain out of maintaining a good numpy / matplotlib installation and I find Activestate make building for distribution a pleasure. 

For now, stick with the python.org and then switching at any point is always simple - the folks here are always friendly and full of advice!

Happy coding, 

Dan
