all the online brokers are still on something looking like a dialup line, a (single) 75MHz Pentium and Microsuck Internet Exploder serversoftware and a frontend that makes you SCREAM. hey guy, you hit the nail on the head there...although you may have been a little generous with waterhouse -- i'm not sure they've moved up to a p-75 yet<g>...from the performance of their site lately they may still be using a 486, and an sx at that...i guess they should swap their 486sx for intc's new celery chip(trade in one crippled chip for another -- appropos for waterhouse don't you think?) anyway, for a good quick site check out dreyfus(www.tradepbs.com) -- no graphics and normally very fast...i use them for most of my option trades(1.75 per contract, $15 minimum)...drawback is that their quotes often seem not to be current, and if their system ever goes down(which doesn't seem to happen often, thank goodness) your're sol 'cause you'll never get thru on the phone happy trading, wade
