I have the impression that in this whole font discussion nobody
mentioned the little manipulation that lets you use the CM postscript
fonts instead of running metafont and using bitmap fonts: 

Uncomment the line 

type1_default=true

in the texmf/dvips/config/updmap script and then run this script.

Actually I don't understand why this isn't the default in tetex.
