To clarify, I've taken screen shots of the 0.99.3 and 0.99.1.1 dmg 
installers.  If you look in the bottom pane of the window, you will see the 
install location which you cannot change.  The 0.99.1.1 installer places 
files in the appropriate location for python.org 2.6.5.  The 0.99.3 
installer places files in the appropriate location for the OS X bundled 
version of python (2.6.1) that we have been warned not to use.
