I have heard reports that Natty doesn't like ATI, I just booted into it via live disk, and it is much more accomodating to my ATI Radeon HD 4850 than 2.9 was! I didn't do any 3D stuff, but it seems to have no trouble with it. Not ready to buy into a UE-less distro tho.

Works fine with Natty and Gnome 3 shell.
ATI does not like Unity.

lol
4 systems on hand right now
Nvidia , ati , intel
I would have to say compliance with Linux would work in this order.
Intel
Nvidia
ATI / AMD
I like ATI kuz its cooler running and greener with more impressive architecture.
But there driver support sucks.

I may not like Unity, or Ubuntu much for that matter, but I have been in testing for several cycles with Ubuntu including 11.04. I have a poorly supported Radeon HD 2400 PRO and have no trouble running Unity at all. I do have fglrx installed.

11.04 is more than Unity. I have Xubuntu installed, and am moderately happy, still a bunch of issues to fix. Gnome 3 is pretty nice IMHO

Lite is doing well with my Toshiba laptop, no installation issues. Waiting for full to do a clean install, did side by side to try Lite.

I have found no difference between Nvidia and ATI
