Hi battleriver,
Sorry, just getting back to this post, so I missed your earlier question.
I use MFs standard Express platform at home (and the web interface when away). It has enough bells-and-whistles for what I do (don't need anything too fancy).
Just a side note--be careful who you demo the interface from. Before I ended up with them directly, I tried a broker that cleared through them and provided what I thought was the latest express software. It was a piece of crap and horribly outdated (I was pleasantly surprised when I switched and found that their software was actually much better than what that broker was pawning off).
Oh, and you should be able to use almost any interface you want with them (they support/provide all of the major names out there).
