This is an OEM version of the Matrox G450 AGP card, and is actually manufactured by Compaq, under agreement with Matrox.

It's primary use is as a good, fast, 2D display card for people who need business graphics. It cannot compare to _any_ of the
fast 3D cards available today, so gamers should rule this card out.

Further, for home use, the OEM version of the card does not support TV-output, nor does it include the required cable that
would allow the user to send DVD output to a television.

The only standout features of this card are it's ability to display razor-sharp 2D graphics. Matrox is known for their high
quality video output, and this card is one of their best in that regard. The card would shine when used with a video projection
unit, for displaying the screen output for training sessions, or sales presentations. Most Matrox cards are also very reliable,
and should stay working for many years.
