It certainly works well enough with the free [beer] MS VS 2008 Express and I'm fairly sure it's fine with MingW. Both of those are readily available and I don't imagine anyone who's going to use Pyrex / Cython / ShedSkin is going to baulk at downloading a compiler set :) TJG -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
