Did y'all try the installer at http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/ I'm happy to help with the windows installer. We have a windows 7 64 bit machine you are also welcome to use; Ondrej has login and remote desktop access to that, I can give access to anyone who needs it. The question of whether to defer to (Canopy, Anaconda) has come up a few times on various lists. It seems to me that has some serious risks that we can avoid by making good windows installers.
