Where do you get M IIs from nowadays?

What I've ended up doing is:

Monitor 1 (left) G200 at 1600x1200, echunga:0
Monitor 2        G400 at 1920x1536, wantadilla:0.0
Monitor 3        M II at 1600x1200, wantadilla:0.1
Monitor 4 (right) Dell Inspiron 7500 at 1400x1050, sydney:0

All four are controlled from one keyboard and mouse (on wantadilla)
with x2x (in the Ports Collection).  I'm trying to get deviant
(extreme left) connected as well, but I'm having difficulties which
may be insurmountable.
