Another company selling the idential stuff is Vector Electronic

It is quite commonly available here in the US from at least these three
parts distrubutors:
Mouser (www.mouser.com), Digikey (www.digikey.com), Jameco (www.jameco.com).
Actually, this is not quite correct. The original poster was asking
about stripboard, which has continous copper strips connecting the
holes. To build circuits, the strips are cut with a special pad
cutter tool (or the home-made equivalent). This product was very
popular in England, but never caught on in the US. Vector doesn't
sell it now, and I don't think they ever did. Maybe it was patented
by Vero.
In the US, it was common to find "pad per hole" boards, where the pad
around each hole is isolated. No cutting is required, but the pads
need to be jumpered together with solder blobs or soldered down
component leads. This is what Vector is known for.
Anyway, here's a mail order source for small stripboards (this page
also shows the difference between stripboard and pad per hole board):
