I'm currently a Windows Emacs user. I'm curious, which plugins in particular gave you trouble?

Ideally I wanted to set up an Emacs environment for Python development. I tried to install the plugins mentioned on this page:

Couln't get flymake and pyflakes to work. pymacs was a non-starter so I couln't use ropemacs.

I also tried CEDET, but that was an epic fail.
