news flash, matrox isn't a gamer's card.
really, it's a wasted review--we all know matrox cards are not good at gaming benchmarks. i'm sure the reviewer knew it, but did it anyway.
fwiw i'm using one of the g200 quads now and it's a very interesting card in that it has 4 full fledged g200 cards-unlike some of the dual monitor setups where the secondary out is decidedly inferior to to the primary (even matrox has cheesed out on some it's dual monitor setups.) for it's purpose these quad cards are probably the best in their class.
'course i only paid $45 bucks for mine.
i mean, think about it, take away 3d (i.e. many corporate situations) and now who is on top? matrox still has the best 2d, though ati's products may be almost as good. it has the best multimonitor support and excellent drivers.
matrox has decided to go after a different niche and is doing very well.
granted, at some point in the future, even business apps will probably be 3d, and matrox may get left behind.
but for those of us who read much, have multiple monitors, and just don't game, the matrox cards are still a fine choice.
