If you fetch the tx and px fonts from ctan, and put 'm in the right place
in your tree, you can use palatino as well as times math for free; see
mfonts and fontdemo file for usage and samples.
The palatino looks nice on screen.
There are also some math fonts from vtex (informal, helvetica, baskerville,
times, ...), which i will support too. So in the end there will be some 10
free+yandy+vtex math fonts to play with. Not that bad eh?
