That's odd since, AFAIK, Apple has never released an OS X with Python 2.4. Current Apple systems ship with OS X 10.6, aka Snow Leopard. 10.6 includes a Python 2.6.1 (64-bit/32-bit) and a Python 2.5.4 (32-bit only). The previous release, 10.5, shipped with 2.5 and 2.3. But, not to worry, if you need other versions, you can download OS X installers from python.org. > > http://www.python.org/download/releases/3.1.1/http://www.python.org/ftp/pyth > > on/3.1.1/python-3.1.1.dmg > > This tells me nothing. That's the disk image for the OS X Python 3.1.1 installer.
