Making allowance for new convenience of get-pip.py that automatically installs setuptools and pip together.

Stop recommending distribute, which has now been merged into setuptools.

This looks great!

I'd be very wary of fully removing the ;C:\Python27\Scripts part, though. We'll leave it for now and see how it goes.

Generally, I wonder how people would feel about just outsourcing this part of the documentation to Python-Guide?

IMHO this should be solved by having pip added to the path, which is why the part on win_add2path.py is mentioned immediately after.

I could see arguments both directions; but apart from that, if you were to outsource this I'd suggest pointing to http://packaging.python.org (which, by the way is up on github and ofc welcomes any issues/PRs if you see any inadequacies)

Cheers!
