pyGTK for Cross Platform Development

I've been debating the pros and cons of various development environments, from VC++ 6 to the new C# Express from Microsoft to MinGW with GTK+ or wxWidgets. I've finally settled on Python and GTK+ and Glade as the best choice.

This wil provide me access to the massive Windows client base while retaining my love for Linux and elegant designs. Python allows rapid application development, can be packaged up as only the compiled python code for distribution and can be optimized by writing processor intensive sections in c and linking them in.

That said, I now need to go write some code.
