Your wording wouldn't have cause me to raise an eyebrow.
But ubernostrum seemed to be making a stronger statement that Python favored "one particular group of programmers: people working on Unix ... to write Unix utilities, administrative tools, daemons, etc."
While I know that I used Python 2.x with the win32 extensions to write daemons for MS Windows, and to write an ActiveX extension for Excel.
That's why I wanted clarification on the basis for ubernostrum's statement, with pointers to why I thought Python was well-supported on other OSes.
