On Windows the Python 2.5 distutils package can build two kinds of
installer, the traditional Python installer executable and the newer
Windows (msi) installer. It seems redundant to provide both kinds of
installer so I wonder if there is a preference. I understand Vista has
problems with the older Python installer and privilege escalation. Do
msi installers have the same problem? Does the msi installer for Python
work properly? Unfortunately I do not have access to Vista. So if anyone
is willing to try a Pygame msi installer on Vista I would appreciate it.
Everything is at Pygame 1.8.0rv4(5?). They are available at:
