I tried the gui once but it didn't seem terribly useful.  Graphviz is
really just a little language for creating graphs.  It doesn't feel
all that weird (at least to me) to "compile" it to postscript then
look at it in gv.  Also doing it this way has the advantage of being
the same way you'd use it on a Linux box.

Yeah, there seem to a whole bunch of different versions of LaTeX for
the Mac.  The main advantage of using tetex to me is its similarity to
using it on Linux.

No matter which LaTeX you've got, once you have it installed you can
use cool tools like LaTeXiT[1].
