You should have seen the sponsors at PyCon - every single one of
them was hiring. At times it felt like a job fair!
You said that there are no Python jobs in the Rochester area, but
the Rochester Python user group has about two dozen members, nearly
all of whom work with Python in their jobs (the rest are students).

There is a Win32 package for dealing with COM and the like, so if
you use that, then sure, you're tied to Windows. Beyond that, though,
I can't think of anything else. Even the os.path module abstracts out
the pathing differences, so that you don't have to worry about it.
