    Lyx is not true Wysiwyg. Only Bakoma is a true WYSIWYG tool for latex. Ly for example only has an approximation of how the file/pdf/dvi is going to look like. Whule Bakoma shows you the exact outcome!

    I particularly think about the wysiwyg aspect, because there is an auto refreshing preview. The collaborative aspect is also very important
