This is also what I do nearly all of the time, but for PyWeek I needed a computer running Python that actually had a monitor attached ;-) Although to be fair, Python under Ubuntu Server has for a long time been a very poor experience too, what with the pip problem. (I can't remember what the error message is but if you do 'sudo apt-get install python python-pip' and then use pip to upgrade either pip or requests, it breaks pip completely and irreversibly, you have to manually re-install it using get-pip.py. It's probably this one: https://bugs.launchpad.net/ubuntu/+source/python-pip/+bug/1306991) -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
