        I've seen Camelot, but must confess that I know little about it, so I 
can't compare its scalability to Dabo's.

        Dabo is Python, so yes, any Python library will work fine. Dabo's GUI 
is based on wxPython, and a quick scan of Google shows lots of links for 
displaying graphs from matplotlib in wxPython.

        Since this is simply another Python library, it will work fine. If your 
data is coming from a database, you could add any of the logic for manipulating 
the data to your business object, which acts as the mediator between the 
database and the GUI.
