I didn't do the research for Barrons and I don't know their ties (if any) to Dean Witter (how much the latter advertises in the former, etc.). All I can suggest is go ahead and try it and see for yourself <g>. I'm also not sure what Barrons' criteria are but I do know mine!! And one is a solid options broker which Discover most certainly is not. I'm fairly certain Barrons didn't look into that.

ALSO....up until mid-1998, Discover was really good. Then shortly after the Dean Witter merger, it seemed to go straight downhill. So I'd discount any surveys (Smartmoney) done prior to the past few months.
