+1 Dante. + 1.
It will still be the same cards. Though AMD is doing a good job at
getting more and more drivers modernized and integrated into the kernel.
I happen to use both AMD and Nvidia cards. However I don't use them for
display but for heavy computation. So I don't care about 3d graphics.
(Most graphics on these boxes is an 80x20 terminal screen)

First, there isn't a single mention of Linux in that article, or how
the simple removal of the name "ATI" will ever benefit the Linux
community. Second, not only Radeon cards will continue to exist as AMD
Radeon, but also in the past the only thing that gave me trouble with
Linux and ATI was the desktop compositing needed for compiz and the
likes, which, TBH, is unnecessary fluff. Have used a bunch of ATI
cards with Linux in the past, always worked fine.
This thread should be renamed to: "OFF-TOPIC: AMD removes the ATI name
and Chris still dislikes their products". Hardly a reason for Linux
users to rejoice.
Just my 2c...
