People use Python for all sorts of general purpose jobs. Some people
write very simple scripts and others write very complicated
applications. I can't tell you what Python is "good for" because it is
very popular for all sorts of stuff. It is a general purpose programming
language.

You do not need to use Python from within pythonwin. You can run Python
from a command line, batch file or the Windows explorer.

There are ways of embedding Python code into executables but they are
not necessarily easy and fool-proof.

Some people agree with you. Others disagree. Many like the fact that you
could use Python for BOTH the ASP scripts *and* the MTS/COM+/ISAPI/CGI
application.

Java is also a good language. Python tends to be better at talking to
Microsoft technologies than Java and better at talking to Java
applications than VB or C++.
