Which one to buy ?

[Xavier Bestel]

Here comes that time again: I have to buy a graphic card, I want to buy
a radeon, not too long/wide (limited space in the box), reasonably
recent and powerful, to be used in a debian/sid system.
What do I buy if I want 3D (compiz at least) now, or at least very
soon ?
I guess if AMD pours money on linux support, it's because they want
their stuff to be bought. But it's not clear yet when the latest gen is
usable without fglrx.

Thanks for your enlightened advices,
