I don't care what any "insiders" say.  "Tex", like the guy on the horse,
and "Latex", like the material used to make condoms.  If it should be
pronounced "tech", then spell it that way.

By the way, I don't think that the English language (which does not use
Greek letters) allows such spellings as LaTeX, TeX, or dBASE.
