Hey Paul,

I have followed this guide on my various mac's with lion and it seems to work well:
http://www.thisisthegreenroom.com/2011/installing-python-numpy-scipy-matplotlib-and-ipython-on-lion/

he uses homebrew with no macports, fink or other such horror. it makes for a very nice native build of python 2.7.2, numpy, scipy, ipython and matplotlib

Cheers
- Sina
