Nowadays your insane if you buy anything labeled 'ATI' for use with Linux.
ATI's cards up to the X850XT (including the Radeon Mobility 9600 mentioned in the article) have free 3D drivers, and are the highest-performing cards with free 3D drivers. Nvidia currently has no free 3d drivers, although the Nouveau project is trying to change that.

However, people interested in free drivers will not be interested in the review of ATI's control panel.
