I don't think this is actually true of ATI anymore. Some stuff isn't open, but enough is open (or has been implemented from closed specs by ATI/AMD people) that pretty good free software drivers now exist. (TBH, they've been more than good enough for desktop use for years: they're getting good enough for increasingly hefty games by this point.)
