Kenedy,
You are clearly in the hands of experts here, so I shall not try to muddle the water. However, after several years of using Miktex on Windows, I have switched to TexLive, which seems to be the general trend. I use Texlive on Linux, and wanted to have the same Latex system on both
Windows and Linux (Ubuntu).
In my experience, TexLive is easier to maintain (upgrade). In addition, after you install it (on Windows),
you can click Start/Run:
tlmgr gui
and see a list of all the Latex packages with a short description of what each one does, plus some other information about the package. You can double click on the package name and get a longer description. You might consider trying that. Unlike the Republicans and Democrats in Congress, TexLive and MikTex can coexist and function in the same system, and Lyx can use either.
I hope this is helpful--
Ehud Kaplan
