>2.  What are the latest versions ?

There are far to many programs in TeX to list all the versions.  It is
sufficient to say that you will get the newest version available from
washington.

>4.  What TeX macros do people normally use when preparing documents ?

LaTeX tends to be easier to use and it what I normally suggest to 
most people.
