IronPython
IronPython is [http://hugunin.net/index.html JimHugunin's] implementation of Python on the .NET CLR.
You can download IronPython from http://ironpython.com/
Early results are promising, showing great performance, even better than CPython 2.3 on the Pystone benchmark, but remember this is an early prototype, not a full implementation.
These results caused a flurry of discussion, which has since died down, pending more information from Jim.
