What do you use to trade stocks?

[mikegg]

I'm beginner and looking to invest some of my savings to stocks. I'm not going to be doing heavy duty trading. Just a few hundred here or there. What do you guys recommend that I use?

Anyone use OpenHouse? It looks like they are the cheapest - $3.95 per trade.

Etrade. My employer gives me my stock options through them, so I use them for personal use as well.

You'll probably be wanting to look at commissions as your main driver if you just putting in small amounts like that to buy and hold. Advanced trading platforms and the like aren't going to benefit you much. For you it's minimizing the gains you need just to break even on buy/sell costs.
