I'm relatively new at ConTeXt, and have been avoiding all issues related to
fonts ... till now.  I've struggled with the manuals, some source code, the
list archives, and google, but I have to cry uncle.

I have a MikTeX installation.  (would I be better off with TeXLive?)

I can use postscipt fonts hence:

\setupbodyfont[pos,ber]

or

\usetypescipt[postscript]

The first I got from a suggestion on this list, the second is in "Fonts in
ConTeXt".  They both seem to work.  But they both set math in computer
modern.  The example in "Fonts in ConTeXt" has math set in something that is
*not* cm.  And when I use LaTeX, my math fonts are not cm.

So how can I get a better looking (IMHO) math font when using postscript?
What's the difference between the two ways of setting postscipt fonts?

tia,
Gary
