2.2 Other TeX packages for Windows

emTeX by Eberhard Mattes is another free TEX implementation for Windows that also supports L^ATEX and popular add-ins such as BibTeX. It does not provide PDF support. A freeware Windows shell has been written for this package. I switched to MiKTeX from this package because MiKTeX appeared more capable and better supported.

PCTeX is a commercial TEX package currently selling for $280 that also includes L^ATEX2$e$, most of the standard macro packages, and SliTeX fonts. It does not include PDF support. It has no obvious advantages over the free MiKTeX package for my purposes so I have never investigated it.
