RE: Best Direct

I just switched to Best Direct. So far, so good, though my experience has
been very limited. I had one situation in which a stop order was refused at
the same time it was confirmed. A quick call to the trading desk
straightened it out (same order numbers).
Fills have seemed reasonable, though I haven't yet entered into the teeth of
a fast market.
Only dislike is that program cannot be set up as "always on top." If you are
using only one computer and move between workspaces, this becomes an
irritation. I am told that this improvement is in the works. A separate
laptop would be a better solution.  I also have two ISP's, though the phone
was answered immediately the one time I had to use it.

anyone have any experience with Best Direct online brokers?
do you like their interface?
have you ever been in limbo -- had their system go down and not know if
you were filled?
how long does it take to get filled on average  -- best and worst?
any other input would be appreciated.

thanks
