Hi... I'm just getting started with P, but am very eager to explore it's possiblities.

Where would I begin to find out about creating windows like GUI with Python?

I've downloaded tcl/tk... I'm not exactly sure what to do with them at this point. ( they're sitting in folders on my desktop ).

Welcome to python! I hope you find your python programming experience as
enlightening and insightful as I have!

If you are looking for some resources to help you get started with python
GUI programming using Tk, you may find these links helpful:

If you are using Python with Windows then Tk/Tcl and the Python
Tkinter libraries all come with the Python distributions. You
shouldn't need to download tcl seperately.

'Programming Python' has a really straightforward introduction to
building GUIs using Tk. Alternatively there's a couple of simple apps
with Tk interfaces on my website at
http://www.voidspace.org.uk/atlantibots/pythonutils.html

As many other people might suggest, if/when you don't find tcl/tk to you
liking, move on over to http://www.wxpython.org and give it a go
