re:Datek - Island Viewer not really a "quote" system

The best bid and offer displayed for any given stock on the Island Book does not necessarily represent that stock's best bid and ask throughout the overall Market. Thus, the Island Book Viewer is not a display of Nasdaq quotes but instead is a display of the Island quotes for specific Nasdaq stocks.

So while you see a "sell" for 80 out there, that is not necessarily the actual price you would get. I believe, correct me if I am wrong, that is only matches limit orders off of Dateks proprietary system. When trading opens tomorrow its a whole new ballgame?
