Are you saying there's no point in buying mactex.org, or that if it was 
bought, your current machine is a good one to host it from?

I was looking at your whole page thinking how it could be redesigned to 
be more friendly. And then I was thinking how there's also the LaTeX faq 
website, and then there's also Gerben's introduction, as well as Richard 
Koch's...

Perhaps a coordinated effort could be made to move the majority of these 
sites onto the current MacTeX?
