I don't see any difference between ATI and nVidia. Both provide
binary-only drivers for 3D. For both, there is open source 2D only
driver available ("radeon" vs "nv"). This is the case for any reasonably
recent GPU.
I have both card brands in my machines, and nvidia's driver seems to
have better quality and especially performance (speed and latency -wise)
compared to ATI.
Only thing where ATI is better is when you need to use TV-output. At
least nvidia's PAL S-Video output has been broken for ages.
