I finally managed to install palatinox (.sty, metrics, etc.) in  
MikTeX (Virtual PC with Windows XP). With

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{palatinox}
\begin{document}
Prueba de Palatino.
\end{document}

Adobe Reader identifies the font as PalatinoLinotype-Roman.

In XeTeX, with

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage[cm-default]{fontspec}
\setmainfont{Palatino}
\begin{document}
Prueba de Palatino.
\end{document}

Adobe Reader identifies the font as Palatino-Roman.

I would say the difference between Palatino Linotype and Palatino is  
as between Minion Pro and Minion ---a richer set in the former.


Best,

Axel
