Both TexShop and Textures have strong plus and minus points. TexShop is
free, is compatible with other Unix-based TeX systems, and gives PDF
output directly. For simple TeX/LaTeX jobs it should be fine. Textures
is better if you need synchronicity (the output-to-source mapping), use
non-standard fonts like Mathtime, or can't cope with having to replicate
parts of the TeTeX tree just to store your macro and bibtex files.
Personally I can't wait for the MacOS X version of Textures, but even in
Classic it works perfectly.
