If I were you, I would do what I've done: get the time (which will 
certainly repay in time), collect courage (not much needed) and upgrade as 
soon as possible, at least, to gwTeX.

I'm not completely, but am pretty sure that with the official 
MacTeX-2007 package you can skip over TeXLive-07 (if you do not have time 
for it now) during the very first steps of instillation: you will click 
a button on the left hand side [Customized Instillation] and then 
deselect what you do not want. (Then the following step was somewhat 
confusing, but just go on). The installation takes just few minutes.

Then, you can use
System Preferences -> Other [Tex Distr] button&palette

for switching between your current teTeX and the newest gwTeX.

You can download also gwTeX directly with i-Installer, as you have been 
doing with teTeX.

The above is only my recollection of what I've been doing. But I think 
people on the list wrote about this very clearly. Look through the latest 
emails by Richard Koch with announcements for the official release of 
MacTeX-2007; and also by Bruno Voisin, from Feb-Mar (as I recall, he 
explained all these things in great and clear details).

I hope, I'm not giving you troubles by encouraging you. Have in mind we 
come to this list to get help on problems, but this, certainly, does not 
mean that the life is a basket of problems. It means that we have where 
to turn for advises, help, etc.
