First lets get this out of the way. Some people absolutely hate [math]\mathrm{\TeX}[/math] and/or [math]\mathrm{\LaTeX}[/math] . And yes, there have been studies published that show writing documents in [math]\mathrm{\TeX}[/math] takes longer than writing in Microsoft Word.
I am one of those subset of people that actually like [math]\mathrm{\TeX}[/math]. The ability to properly format mathematical equations is without parallel.
