For me, the strongest case for AMD/ATI hardware is availability of
relatively stable FOSS drivers. I have been using the radeon drivers
for a little over 2 years now with my ATI HD4870 and have had almost
no issues. Although I don't use a lot of 3D, I do play some games from
time to time (e.g. Nexuiz, Humble Indie Bundle games). I would rather
support a manufacturer who makes some effort (some might argue
minimal, but an effort nonetheless) to support FOSS drivers.

Just my 2¢.
