Hi
 Jameco had a good selection of different perf board shapes,
sizes and materials. Not cheap but a good selection. They
ship really fast. I live in the bay area and usually get my
order the next day if ordered before noon the day before.
 If you need specialty board, such as for a older PC or
S-100 try Anchor Electronics. They have these things
as well.
