Complete agreement -- IPython is a nice, relatively lightweight mathematical environment based on Python. Runs locally in a browser [EDIT: and command line as well]. Easy to use. Free.

And in terminal or a native Qt-based app. The Python runs always natively (ie not in browser), notebook/browser is merely a frontend to it.

Yes, thank you -- I edited my earlier post to reflect this.
