OK, sorry to bother folks so much about math notation and all, but .. It looks like TeX and LaTeX are the de-facto standards for math type setting and also for equation formatting .. well ahead of MathML. Its also apparently a great word processing system in general.
So the question to all you LaTeX folks, could you let us know which of the many implementations you use, and how you use it? On the Mac, there're several options. The Mac TeX site http://www.esm.psu.edu/mac-tex/ .. has several distributions, and multiple front ends. TeXShop and iTeXMac are the most popular unified edit/view systems. But many folks simply use good text editors, with easy viewer integration of some sort (DVI/PDF). From what I can tell, the two approaches are integrated edit/view systems, vs your basic text editor using a standalone viewer.
