Coming from Visual Studio, Visual Python looked really promising.
Too bad it's so expensive. I haven't tried WingIDE but I've
been given a beta to check out.

Thanks for the links to the IDE articles.

Ah well, that could take a long explanation. I left my job as a Principal
Consultant
at Microsoft UK a year ago and got into Open Source. I was pretty impressed
when
I discovered Python. Here's my related blog entry:

I'm interested in the Python marketing list as I've been involved in
technical
and platform debates for years. I think Python has potential and I'd rather
code in it than PHP or Perl!

This was mentioned on the edu-sig list, but it deserves a mention here
because Bioinformatics is potentially a large growth area for Python.
