Use the titlesec package. This allows you to do whatever you want to 
chapter headings. I think the koma-script packages provides some similar 
facilities, too.

The memoir class has good support for chapter styles, and includes quite a 
variety of them, as well as detailed documention on how to write your own 
(see page 83 of memman.pdf, the English documentation for memoir, and 
http://www.ctan.org/tex-archive/info/MemoirChapStyles/).

Memoir has its problems. It's incompatible with the tocloft package. It 
includes some, but not all of the tocloft package. See this:

http://www.mail-archive.com/lyx-users@lists.lyx.org/msg44255.html

Personally, I don't use Memoir anymore, but I SURE DO LOVE the Memoir 
documentation. The first half is about how you should typeset and why, and is 
a must for any self-publisher.

Try the koma-script classes, which make it very easy to configure the 
chapter headings and such the way you want. Or you can use the titlesec 
package with any class you want, pretty much. But you do have to get 
your hands dirty with LaTeX to use either.
