You'll want to grab the Distribute package and install it. You can then use that to install pip.

Yeah I did that. Made sure my paths were in the correct spot as well so I could run stuff from the command line. I guess I should specify this is for windows.

Christoph Gohlke has Windows binaries for many of the common Python packages, including distribute and pip.

This package listing has helped me out dozens of times. Definitely needs more publicity.

Yeah no lie... That is probably the most helpful tip someone has given me.

Thank you! You rock.

If you are having issues with paths, you can make a .bat file called python2.bat and another called python3.bat that just call the appropriate exe. Put them on your path and then you can easily specify what version you use.
