I would recommend against Nvidia:

http://www.petitiononline.com/nvfoss/

They are completely apathetic towards open-source and Linux, and I have 
encountered (or heard of people encountering) many problems with them. They 
don't have their own free drivers or have released SPECs for their cards 
(the "nv" driver is written in hex.). I have recently bought a new ATI HD 
2600 Pro card to replace my old Nvidia GeForce 4 MX card (whose fan died and 
that was on the virge of being no longer supported) and am very happy.

I wouldn't want to support such a company with my wallet.
