the tex user groups distribute tex-live, which is preconfigured for many 
os' s; updates fpr context can then be installed into a local texmf tree

the basis for texlive is thomas essers tetex and fabrice popineaus fptex so 
if you are on lin or win you can use one of these

when setting up your own system you can distinguish between the texmftree 
(tds compliant) and binaries

[there's also miktex for windows, and there are quite some miktex users on 
this list]
