I also uses Expressionist. This is a very good package, and you can even
cut formulaes you have already inserted in your document, back to the
formula editor.

Another thing that might bother people is that WORD :-( fails to use the
baseline offset information supplied by most typesetting programs for
the Macintosh. 

Disclaimer: I have used LaTeX, but have now settled down with NISUS,
which is the state of the art wordprocessor for the Macintosh (free demo
available from jon@weber.ucsd.edu), and Expressionist which I think is
the best price/performance ratio in mathematical typesetting (apart from
OzTeX).

Disclaimer disclaimer: I am not connected with Paragon Concepts or the
company making Expressionist in any way. I just happened to have bought
their products.
