And Paul Moore is very close to having cloud-based VM images set up for people 
to do 64-bit builds, though I think he's skipping the VS 2010 installation.

As I understand it, there'll be a VS Community 2015 as well (though the Express 
editions are still part of the daily builds...), and if not the recent Express 
for Desktop builds don't have the 64-bit bug, so there'll certainly be a free 
VS that can develop/build/debug Python.

Hopefully we're quickly getting to the point where open-source devs don't need 
to worry about MSDN subscriptions :)

Cheers,
Steve
