I am fairly new to Python, the first version I loaded was 2.6. I have

upgrading is? I am using Windows XP Pro for my OS.

On Windows, X.Y.* all go in one directory (over-riding each other)
So the whole 2.6.* family should work just fine alongside the 3.0.*

Just don't try to have a 2.6 version of Idle and a 3.0 version of Idle
running at the same time! 2.6 WinPy and 3.0 Idle seem to coexist ok,
which is handy when I'm trying to get to grips with the differences
between versions..

Just out of curiosity, am I the only one who think that switching to
3.x right now is not a good idea?
