Vet, one thing to keep in mind is that NASDAQ bid/ask and last sale quotes are apparently out of sync. You'll see this on Datek, I see it on my quote service, and I suspect you'll see it on ANY quote service.

Apparently, the bid/ask quotes and the last sale info are provided over separate feeds.

I *beleive* that the bid/ask prices are generally more up-to-date than the last sale prices.

Anybody else have more definative information on this?
