<http://download.enthought.com/MacEnthon/ReadMe.html> but it's self labeled as "0.1 Test Release" i.e. somewhat preliminary; it claims to support only Panther (10.3) and its 2.3.0 Python (no claims for Tiger, 10.4, and its 2.3.5 Python, nor for other Python Mac istalls yet). If you're just trying to learn and check things out, it might be better to get a more recent Python from python.org (2.5 or 2.4.4) and the various other packages as and when you need them (you can use the MacEnthon list as a guide:-). You'll need a C compiler to be sure you can install any package from sources -- Apple's XCode includes gcc, it's free, and it's the safest choice (but it's a HUGE download, as it comes with a lot of stuff -- I don't think Apple offers a simple way to install "just" gcc and minimal supporting tools).
