I recommend Rose.  I have been using them for about 3 years.  Very good back
office and execution.  Before that, I used Schwab - they consistently 
screwed up my accounts.  I also occasionally use Quick and Reilly (sp?) -
they are a little confused when tracking your orders, but they are
very good in delivering certificates and checks.
