Installing Linux is still a LOT easier than installing a working MSYS since you get proper package management with proper dependency resolution, while with MSYS, you end up downloading dozens of different inter-dependent GNU packages one-by-one until anything works. At least that's what it looked like a couple of months ago. Granted, cygwin has a nice installer. -- http://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
