LyX makes LaTeX much easier. I used it for more than a year. The
reason that I quit with LyX and went for LaTeX (commands) though, is
that at one point LyX wasn't able to process its own data anymore
(some error in the file I wrote with it). I exported the data to LaTeX
and looked manually for the error. This way I learned LaTeX, and I
never felt any urge to return to LyX.
LaTeX is *very* easy to learn. The best way is to look at example
files and read the little booklet 'The (Not So) Short Introduction to
LaTeX'

Hey thanks for that link! Nice to have some more up-to-date info on the
subject. I have had to dig into Latex to get lyx to do some tricks, but I
don't push the edges too much; happy to let the standard environments just do
their thing.
