Excuse these novice questions:

I'm in the process of installing TeX from a distribution tape I received
from Univ. of Wash. There seem to be only cm* fonts and some math fonts
from AMS (font names begin in m or eu) From looking at the sample TeX
files and others, most of them refernce am* fonts. What is the
difference between cm* and am* fonts? How do I get am* fonts? What are
sources for alternate TeX fonts (ie ftp sources)
