Try www.cdwg.com.  I was able to buy Matrox G200 Quad months ago while I
couldn't find it anywhere else.  The saleperson's name is Jason Clancy,

I'm trying to setup a new AG display machine which uses a Matrox G450
AGP card and two G450 PCI cards.  Trouble is, I haven't been able to
find a vendor with the PCI G450's in stock, including Mwave.com,
TheChipMerchant.com, Microwarehouse.com, and as a last resort Matrox
itself.  Matrox was unable/unwilling to give me a date when they
would be able to ship more product.

This is probably relevant to anyone who is trying to build a new
display machine with the latest recommended specs:  Does anyone know
of a vendor who has PCI Matrox G450 cards in stock?

Thanks,
Steve
