James,
Off topic.
Jim,
Schwab does work a trade, whether through the web or a live person. I often get a trade with "price improvement." I don't claim to be an expert in the mechanics either but I have had numerous discussion with two friends (yes, I do have friends), one used to be a broker and the other is a trader who makes $1,000,000/year (primarilly in currency trading but he has done stocks also) who have explained a little about the mechanics. I am told that Merill Lynch and Schwab get the best executions because they are the two largest firms with the most clout. Good luck.
