I'm with Scott - though I think LaTeX will do.
I don't ever expect to write a breakthrough paper but I've spent long enough
butting my head against various word processing systems that don't really do
maths (or other formallly structured text, like computer science or music
notation) so well to have embraced TeX (actually LaTeX with a few bits of TeX)
with love as a document preparation system that acts as an aid to logical
thought rather than an incitement to keyboard/mouse vandalism.
If someone is sufficiently brighter than me to be able to write a breakthrough
paper, I'd think they would be bright enough to come to a similar conclusion
about TeX.
