I use MathType 3.0 for Word (This is a special version that replaces word 5's
equation editor) but you can get an application only version as well.
I mostly use the command-option backslash to form my equations in word
(90 % of the time) and then use MathType when I have matricies or
complicated bracketing schemes in really nasty equations. I tried
expressionist for a few days on a friends machine and decided I
did _not_ like it.
The only thing I wish these programs has was a "Convert to command-option /
form" so you could edit them from inside Word. It shouldn't be that difficult
since MathType has a Convert to TeX form.
