I got it working with
Python 2.5.1
pywin32-207
pyserial 2.4
wxPython2.7

Though I'm still getting a warning
API version mismatch for module win32event. This Python has API version 1013, 
module win32event has version 1012
I don't know what it means.

pyobd.py has bug in it line 354

if "OS" in os.environ.keys() : running windows
 
"OS" is not in os.environ.keys() in windows 98, so I changed "OS" to "WINDIR" 
which is in os environ.keys in windows 98.
