It made the installations really simple and kept the turbogears aspect scriptable. I also only had to support one browser (even if it was a cruddy one ;)

An update.
I ended up not using py2exe or setuptools at all.
I wrote a script that copied python.exe, PythonService.exe, necessary
libraries and my Python files with their dependencies into distribution
directory. This directory is then packaged by InstallShield into
Setup.exe. During installation, everything is dropped into user's
target directory, so that his C:\Program Files\My Program looks a lot
like my C:\Python24. Installer then registers PythonService.exe, puts
python DLLs into %systemroot%, registers my python-based services, and
everything just works. I do not have to worry about py2exe and eggs
anymore, or about JSON engine not working because something is treated
differently when it runs from a zip file.
Turns out, life is simpler than I thought :)
