Linda, OT * on-line trading * Because of the low reliability of online trading it is advisable to have one account that can be accessed directly from your computer, using the broker's proprietary software [NOT the internet]. With internet trading at least two things can go wrong: your ISP could be unaccessible and the broker's internet site could be slow or down. Schwab has eSchwab software you install on your PC. I believe Waterhouse and DLJ also have proprietary trading software. For a frequent trader [which I'm not], it makes sense to have two PCs with a different ISP on each and two brokers that can be accessed from either one. On ISPs for SF Bay area residents: I switched to Pathlink. $10 per month for unlimited access. [may go to $15 after 6 months]. Calling support you get a LIVE person on the second or third ring! I had software problems preventing access and they patiently walked me through the fix. I had been paying $20 with Pacbell. Pathlink's service is equivalent to the higher priced ISPs. If anyone signs up with them, please mention my e-mail address [maugott@pathlink.com]. Then I get a week free for the referral. They had an hour or so downtime this week [pre-announced, so they could upgrade] and gave each customer a free week for the inconvenience. pathlink.com Gottfried
