Others have pointed out the version discrepancy.  But I'll also ask what
you're learning Python from.  If you've got a tutorial or book that uses
Python 3.x, then forget 2.x and install 3.3

If you're learning it in a class, then the instructor should already
have told you what version to use.

It is possible to install both 2.7 and 3.3, but you probably don't need
the confusion while you're learning.
