If you are only interested in good, reliable execution at a low commission, then give
Brown and Co a call or visit their website at www.brownco.com. I've been w/ them forever
and have had more "good" surprises than "bad". You can get realtime quotes over the
phone or thru their website.
If you're looking for a place to do research, etc though, they aren't for you.
My only gripe is that a couple times when I wanted to short a stock, they weren't able
to get it.
No affiliation. Just a satisfied customer.

Bill Vedder
