I recently purchased the TeX/LaTeX package from Tools GmbH,
Kessenicher Str. 108, 5300 Bonn 1, West Germany.  I bought TeX, LaTeX,
BibTeX, the screen previewer and printer driver that handles my Atari
SLM804 laser printer (among others), along with the necessary fonts to
run LaTeX.  It came with both a German language and an English
language manual.  Total cost was about 305 DM, or approximately $180.
Some of the pieces are priced separately, if for example you only
wanted the screen and printer driver (which are one and the same
program). 

It works quite well, and I am very pleased with it.  Compared to TeX
implementations I have seen on other machines, this is quite a
bargain!
