Great Datek has a new site....now how the hell do I log in to the sonovabitch....link to www.datek.com doesn't fully load....almost all the icons show up broken....login leads to a blank page....and the ***kin market is rallying like a raging bull....I hate to miss these trading opportunities.... So, Peter ... what the hell is going on here? Good thing I'm long.... Rod

Peter, I appreciate the attempt to improve the site, but I for one really dont like all the added colors and perks on the trading pages...I like it simple, with white backgrounds and gridlines....I want to be able to print out a SIMPLE end of day report without all those silly icons, just my position, end of day closing prices and my portfolio value.....I cant even get that to print on one page anymore because the width is too wide due to the icons...I need to print it landscape style which I hate......Also I tried to print my 1997 history and got alot of black bars that say "account summary" randomly interspersed with my trade confirmations....what can I say, but I dont like the change.... Is there anyway we can still use the old "look"? I don't need any bells and whistles...I dont want news, I dont want charts, I dont want any of these other services, ...I already pay $400/mo. to someone else for that///I just want concise info and to be able to TRADE FAST...server 7 with none of the colors or new perks served me GREAT....how can I get the old system back?
