I use a version of 2.3.4 on my Os X system that I installed myself without any apparent loss of functionality. What extra advantages is the Apple installed version supposed to provide?
Currently, Apple uses Python and the CoreGraphics wrappers (which aren't in the standard distribution) for it's fax software, I believe. If you don't use the fax software, you probably won't notice a difference while you continue to use Panther. Of course, Apple may utilize Python more in future versions of OS X, so I continue to strongly recommend not deleting the Python that they provide.
Future releases of Python should be easier to install *alongside* Apple's Python.
