There are indeed! Most of the reasons why I like LyX have been mentioned
already, but one that I find particularly important is the quality of the
printed output (thanks to TeX!). Working in an academic setting, it's
important for my materials to "look academic". I recently gave a symposium
presentation on academic writing where I showed the audience the same article
(from an academic journal) produced in two different ways. For one I
converted the original PDF document to ASCII, imported it to LyX and just put
in a few appropriate paragraph environments. For the other, I opened the
text file in MS Word, changed the fonts to things like MS Comic Sans and put
in some unnecessary borders. They got the point!
