I don't work due to ill health.  I use Python at home on Windows purely 
for my own needs which pip now covers, particularly given the relatively 
recent introduction of wheel files.  For anything else download the msi 
or exe file and click to install.  Seems like utopia compared to the 
real world that the rest of you have to live and work in.  Sure I have 
to do some research first and maybe make mistakes, but I do have the 
luxury of time, no boss and no stupid deadlines set by some dumbo sales 
person, sorry, account manager :)
