Hi there,
thanks Predag and Roland for your replies.
I'll stick with teTeX for the beginning, it looks like a promising
start. When I need additional macro packages (one for creating nice
presentations would be nice indeed) I'll check with ctan.

Hi John,
Check out ixsystems.com. They build and support servers particularly for
FreeBSD (and other lesser unix-like OSes) and are competitively priced. The
pre-sales engineer I talked to definitely had a clue so you should be able
to make a good decision before you give them any money.
