I am trying App Engine out for the first time after successfully installing 
a Heroku / Flask application.

I have run into this issue right away.

I followed the download link below from the 
Python2.7 development environment page at 
https://developers.google.com/appengine/docs/python/gettingstartedpython27/devenvironment

              Download the App Engine 
SDK<https://developers.google.com/appengine/downloads>. 
Follow the instructions on the download page to install the SDK on your 
computer. 

There are no instructions on that page other than a choice of downloads by 
OS type.  When I run the windows installer on my machine, it reports that 
it found Python 2.5, which is not on my machine.  I only have Python 2.7 
installed.  Everything seems to work OK as I have been able to create and 
run the helloworld.py app locally.

It would have been a much smoother experience if the link above said the 
following:

              Download the App Engine 
SDK<https://developers.google.com/appengine/downloads>. 
Choose the appropriate SDK from the download page for your computers OS and 
install it. 

There should also be a mention that it will report Python 2.5 is found (at 
least on Windows it does this), but works for 2.7 as well.
