Advice from a long time Python Windows user that's aimed at everybody,
not just the OP. Always try and find a binary installer, it's far
easier than messing about with ".zip" or ".tar.gz" files. In particular
it avoids the infamous "error: Unable to find vcvarsall.bat", which in
plain English means you've not got Visual C++ installed or you've got
the wrong version.
A very good site to find binaries is this
http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/. You can safely ignore the
"Unofficial" at the top of the page, I've been using stuff from there
for years and never, ever had a problem.
