In Germany there are two companies selling a TeX implementation:
1) TOOLS GmbH
Kaiserstrasse 48
D-5300 Bonn 1
Tel. 0228-229791
2) Kettler EDV-Consulting
Postfach 1345
D-8172 Lenggries
Tel. 08042-8081
We are running the second of these here at our institute.
Some minor annoyances: no statistics (\tracingstats is useless),
and TeX complains too early about "TeX capacity exceeded" when
processing many cross references or a number of large floats
(shows up in LaTeX documents with >50 pages).
It also requires LaTeX .STY Files to be in a certain directory
(namely in \TEX of the current drive) --- no search paths. But
you can get around it by specifying a full path ("\" replaced
by "/" so that TeX will not choke).
Costs are about DM 400 for TeX, LaTeX, BibTeX and a fairly good
screen preview program.
They are also selling printer drivers for Epson FX/LQ, NEC P5/6/7,
Star NL10, HP Laserjet+, Kyocera Laserprinter and Fujitsu DPL-24.
