declaimed the following:

>Note that I have Portable Python, installed on USB flash drive. When I tried run matplotlib installer, I got error:'Cannot install': "Python version 2.7 required, which was not found in the registry"

	Which is a problem you will encounter if you try to install ANY Python
extension prebuilt for Windows (any that are .exe or .msi) -- as all of
them will assume a normal Windows registry entry specifying where the
active Python version resides.
