I don't understand LaTeX or TeX or their relationship or how to use them. I tried to. I'm on Windows, so latex-project.org suggests [1] I download proTeXt. The proTeXt website [2] tells me that "the self-extracting protext.exe file ... is well over 1GB". In fact it is 1.7GB. Considering Office 2013 Professional Plus x64 clocks in at under 1GB I rofl'd my way out of there straight back to Word. And Excel, Outlook, PowerPoint and OneNote.
