It looks like the only 64 bit windows installer for Numpy is for Numpy version 1.3.0 which only works with Python 2.6

http://sourceforge.net/projects/numpy/files/NumPy/

It strikes me as strange that I would have to roll back to Python 2.6 to use Numpy on Windows, which makes me think I'm missing something.

Am I?

Try the (unofficial) binaries in this site:

http://www.lfd.uci.edu/~gohlke/pythonlibs/#numpy

You can get the newest numpy x64 with or without Intel MKL libs for Python 2.7 or Python 3.
