Opinions, please:

What is the best TeX to use on an MS-DOS PC to test and preview
material that is to be uploaded to a UNIX system for printing on
a laser printer? (The PC is an 8mhz 80286/80287, 1mb available EMS,
40mb disk, Hercules monochrome graphics system.)

Rough draft printout on a 9-pin dot matrix printer (Star NX-1001,
Epson LX-850 compatible) may be useful occasionally.
