I would second this.  I'm not much of a unix guy, or much of a small
systems syasdmin (I'm a lawyer, former sysprog on IBM mainframes many
years ago), and I just installed my own copy of Python 2.3 on my ISP's 
Linux box (they're pretty back level, and I seem to be the only big Python 
user), and it was a piece of cake.

Anyone comfortable with installing a third-party module should be 
comfortable installing Python 2.3; they're of about equal complexity.  It 
was maybe a half-hour project for me.
