In my opinion, pdflatex creates higher quality output, but it is more difficult to use. - if you use pdflatex, your images must be in PDF format. But LyX can't then show them. - With pdflatex, you can use hyperlinks with package hyperref. I don't know if it works with usual LaTeX which goes to PostScript (I would guess not). - With pdflatex you can set the document title, keywords etc. that'll show with Acroread (not with xpdf :( ) Also, some latex document that I have written don't work with pdflatex, but only with latex. I don't know why, they should.
