Hal,

The big thing with PMB for me was two things:

1) It appears you can only trade the mini via limit orders. I don't have time to type in the price everytime I want in or out. Don't get me wrong, I use limits from time to time, but as an exclusive tool, forget about it. I want markets as my main way in and out. I did not use their software, only tried the demo, but did not like it.

2) They are a browser based entry system. I don't know about you, but I have not seen a really stable browser. There is always a page fault or something. I did not want to rely on the bowsers for my trading platform.

Leoweb allows me all the entry options and a standalone program. Zap commissions are a bit more, but well worth the piece of mind.

My two pennies......

-Scott
