I tried lyx, and I must say--it's the greatest thing ever!  ^_^  Man, it's
utterly fantastic.  I test-drove it with the following notation-heavy equations:

a)  The definition of the definite integral as a limit of Riemann sums.
b)  The zeta function
c)  Several integrals from Maxwell's Electromagnetic field theory

lyx handled all of these in a standard or acceptable manner, despite their
unusual layouts.  It's definately a must-have for math or science word
processing.  Thanks for recommending it!
